Massachussetts fishing vessel reels in unexploded military shell

The Orleans Police Department shared photos of the rusty, unexploded military shell which found its way into a fishing dragger’s net at about 10:30 a.m. “Orleans Police and Fire personel closed the area until the Massachusetts State Police Bomb Squad and Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal teams arrived and secured the shell,” the department said. Police said the shell was still live, but too fragile to dismantle so it was transported to the end of the harbor.
