A hand grenade and an old flare have been discovered in two separate incidents of unexploded devices in Lincoln today.

The Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit (EOD) were called out to a garden on Addison Drive where an old flare was discovered. Meanwhile the hand grenade was found from the water on Waterside North.

Both items are to be safely removed by the EOD unit and transported to RAF Scampton where they can conduct controlled explosions so there is no risk to the public.
