A World War II-era Navy bomb was found on a California beach by the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office on New Year’s Eve after massive waves bombarded the coast of California last week.
The World War II bomb, described in a Facebook post by the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office bomb squad as an “inert military ordnance” due to its status as a bomb without explosive contents, was discovered on the Pajaro Dunes.
“On New Year’s Eve, our bomb team was called out to the Pajaro Dunes,” the Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office wrote. “The recent storms washed up what was determined to be an inert military ordnance! As a precaution our bomb team responded, deemed it safe, and had it removed from the beach. Thank you to Travis Air Force Base personnel for responding and collecting it!”
