The Explosive Ordnance Disposal Regiment were called to the scene this afternoon
Officers were seen on Bridge Road in Litherland this afternoon, with a cordon across the end of the street blocking a section of the Leeds and Liverpool canal. The force arrived at the scene at 2.40pm after a call from a group of magnet fishers who discovered two unexploded grenades, dating back to World Wars One and Two.
Neil Barratt, a member of the group told the ECHO: "We came at 8.30am, and we found the grenades in the early afternoon. We found a Mills 36 grenade from WW2 and it looked viable, soon afterward I found the Mills Five grenade which is from WW1. Another member of the group, David Crank, 56, said: "I was just throwing my magnet in and the next moment I pulled out a WW2 grenade. I knew what it was by the shape and feel of it.
