A homeowner in rural Atascosa County discovered a surprising and potentially hazardous item on their property. What was initially thought to be a replica turned out to be a live Civil War cannon shell.
Deputies were called to the scene, and the situation was handled by experts from JBSA-Lackland EOD. They safely removed the shell and took it to Camp Bullis for detonation.
Further details about this incident can be found through WOAI News 4, the local NBC affiliate. The discovery and subsequent removal of the live Parrott artillery shell serve as a reminder of the importance of proper handling and disposal of potentially hazardous historical items.
