Sweden: Preschooler brings grenade to class

Stockholm: A young child sparked panic at his Swedish pre-school when he brought in a grenade he found on a military firing range to show his friends, local officials said Wednesday.

###

The child arrived with the grenade in his hand at the school in the southern town of Kristianstad on Tuesday.

###

A teacher who saw the grenade contacted police.

###

Police officers were able to determine it was a “dangerous” grenade the boy had picked up this summer at the Rinkaby firing range, located outside Kristianstad.

###

They blocked off the area and the national bomb squad neutralised the ammunition at the scene several hours later.

###

“We don’t know how bad the damages would have been” if it had exploded, a police spokesman told AFP.
