MORTON TOWNSHIP, Mich. -
The discovery of three World War II-era hand grenades at a Mecosta County home caused a scare this week.
The Grand Rapids Press and the Morning Sun of Mount Pleasant report that members of a family were cleaning out a home in Morton Township, about 75 miles northwest of Lansing, when they made the find.
A bomb squad responded Monday and investigators determined that the explosive material had been removed from the grenades. Authorities say the grenades had pins and the original hardware in place.
