Man Brings Grenade to Sheriff's Office

MOSCOW, Idaho - Latah County Sheriff's deputies had to cordon off their own parking lot after a man thought he was doing a good deed by bringing in a live grenade he found in an old farmhouse.
Kenneth Faunce was helping to restore the farmhouse in Genesee on Sunday when he found the old grenade packed in a box filled with wood shavings. Rather than calling authorities, Faunce drove it to the sheriff's office.
He left it inside his car, which was isolated until the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team from Fairchild Air Force Base could come take it away.
Now the sheriff's office is urging anyone who finds any type of explosive device to use extreme caution, leave it where it was found and contact local law enforcement.
