Headline: Controlled Explosion of World War II-Era British Tank Shell Near Bauschlott and Bretten
In an event that caused a stir on Tuesday evening, a Second World War tank shell was discovered near the B294 between Bauschlott and Bretten. The location of the initial discovery was a wooded area, and the area was immediately cordoned off.
The tank shell, identified as a World War II-era British shell, was found approximately 600 meters away from the original discovery site on Wednesday morning, around 9:00 AM. The authority that deployed the explosives expert to defuse the ordnance was the local bomb disposal unit, often coordinated by the police or bomb squad in Germany.
The controlled detonation of the tank shell was performed by the bomb disposal service around 10:15 PM on Tuesday. Fortunately, no one was in danger during the detonation, and it did not result in any property damage. The bomb disposal service has confirmed that the British shell was a 25-pounder artillery round.

The discovery of the second British shell has further raised concerns about unexploded ordinances in the area. With the increasing number of such discoveries, it is crucial to remain vigilant and report any suspicious findings to the appropriate authorities. The authorities are working diligently to ensure the safety of the public and to dispose of these historical relics in a controlled manner.
