WW II bomb found in garden

MALANG, East Java: The authorities have secured an object they
believe is a dud bomb from the World War II found by a citizen
last week.

The corroded object, 40 centimeters long with a diameter of 20
centimeters, was found by Flumensius Urbanus Enjo, 24, in the
Simpang area.

Commandant of the city mobile brigade, Capt. Bambang Ramelan,
said that although the bomb was a dud, it was potentially
dangerous and could still explode.

Urbanus said he found the bomb when he was weeding his garden.
"I thought it was some kind of buried treasure before a friend of
mine told me it was a bomb," he said as quoted by Antara. (pan)
