A 1kg (2.2lbs) suspected World War Two German bomb has been removed and destroyed after being found in a Devon garden.
Devon and Cornwall Police said the device was discovered in a home in Church Road, Colaton Raleigh, near Sidmouth, at about 13:40 BST on Sunday.
The force said a cordon was set up while the bomb, which was described as an incendiary device, was removed.
The Ministry of Defence said a Royal Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal team safely detonated the device in a nearby field.
