BOMB squad officials paid a visit to a Chelmsley Wood street this week after a live grenade, which apparently originated from one of the homes, was found in Birmingham.
The unexploded device was discovered by men sifting through a consignment of metal at a recycling site in Nechells on Monday (March 27).
Emergency services were called in at around 12noon and police set up a cordon so that the grenade could be assessed by the bomb squad.
Officers and explosives experts then paid a visit to Lyecroft Avenue, although a search found nothing dangerous at the address.
A photo of the van, with Royal Logistics Corps Bomb Disposal on the side, parked in the street was later posted online
