Florida Man Finds Live Rocket, Carries It To Police Station

A man driving around Lake City discovered a military rocket on the side of the road and decided to bring it in to the local police station.

“Officers determined it was indeed a live, high-explosive military device. Explosives experts from Alachua County responded and identified the device as an M247 rocket with 2.3 pounds of composition B for the explosive.”

“Police also remind everyone not to approach any suspicious devices, and to call police immediately.”

Clearly, I am spending too much time indoors and need to get out and drive around this fine state more.
