On Tuesday members from the OPP Prince Edward County dispatch responded to a weapons disposal call.
Officers attended the residence to retrieve what was reported to be an historical military ordnance.
Officers then contacted Canadian Forces Base Trenton who dispatched their Explosives Ordnance Disposal unit to remove the item safely.

Additionally, due to Prince Edward County’s proximity to the Forces Base, there are occasionally search and rescue flares washing ashore onto from the lakes and bays.
