Explosive projectiles found in Baneasa
Two explosive projectiles were found on Monday evening on an agricultural land in Baneasa, Giurgiu County.
The first, by the 150 mm caliber, was found by a man who was carrying out agricultural works. He asked for the help of the authorities.
On the spot, the Pirotechnicians from ISU Giurgiu, a police crew and one from ITPF Giurgiu traveled.
Following the land, a few meters away, the pyrotechnicians discovered an explosive projectile of 75 mm caliber. It was covered by land.
The two projectiles were lifted and transported safely, to be destroyed.
ISU warning
Unexploded ammunition is very dangerous and that is why people need to know what to do when they find metal objects that resemble projectiles, grenades, bombs, cartridges or the like.
First of all, they should not touch or hit them, whether they are partially buried in the ground or are on the surface. You do not have to pick them up because they have nowhere to know at what stage they are. If they are not sure what kind of objects they are, they must not cut them, nor use them for the improvisation of some tools or ornaments.
Out of curiosity, some people may be tempted to disassemble foci or other component elements, and this is forbidden because such an action can cause explosions. All the citizens have to do is call the emergency number 112 if they discover cylindrical or other form metal objects that have the suspicion that they would be unexploded ammo elements.
