Intervention of the bomb squad in Rivamonte after the call of the owner of a building that had been left to him

RIVAMONTE AGORDINO. He inherits a house and finds meters and meters of detonating fuse there: all that remained was to call the carabinieri, to the new owner, to avoid unmanageable situations. The explosive roll of the yards was then made to shine by the bomb squads of the carabinieri: in a poor state of conservation, the fuse was found the other day in a dilapidated building in Rivamonte. The carabinieri took care of the quite dangerous scenario and immediately operated.

The scroll was found in the late morning of Wednesday 29 June: it was in a basket, inside the rural building that had been uninhabited for some time. It is a detonating material of the type that is usually used for civil use and for work in quarries: it was in a poor state of conservation and therefore extremely dangerous, according to experts.

The person who inherited the property was aware of this in that building and who evidently found the dangerous object in rearranging the property. You warned the carabinieri of Gosaldo who in turn had the bomb-disposal police of Padua intervene. After having secured the area, the specialized soldiers transported the explosives to the Forcelle Franche di Gosaldo quarry, causing it to explode.

From the reconstructions made by the carabinieri, the fuse probably dates back to the 1950s / 60s and, taking into account the poor state of conservation and its conditions, it was classified as a dangerous material for public safety as it could be very sensitive to activation by external causes. , such as excessive heat or violent shocks could be.
