Unexploded Shells Vanish After Cops Leave Them Unprotected at Milford-on-Sea

Two unexploded shells were spotted at Hurst Spit, Milford-on-Sea, last night (Thursday 30 March) by a member of the public. The area was quickly cordoned off, and bomb disposal experts were due to attend this morning.

Shells Go Missing Overnight

Shockingly, the shells have disappeared after police left them unguarded overnight. The force has yet to issue an apology or appeal, but one of the shells is unstable and potentially deadly. Finding it is now a top priority.
