Michigan Family Finds Bomb Full of Money While Cleaning
Have you ever found something extraordinary while cleaning out your home or the home of a loved one? My dad actually recently found a document stating that his grandfather, my great grandfather, was a football coach at the University of Wisconsin. No wonder my dad and I love watching football!
A family in Lansing, Michigan, found something pretty crazy while cleaning over the weekend. According to the Michigan State Police, someone was cleaning out a family member’s home and found what looked to be an ammunition round. The bomb squad was called, and they found it wasn’t a live round.
Michigan State Police say it was actually a non-live WWI ammunition round. There was also some really old, and apparently valuable, cash in there.
The round was given to authorities, and the family was able to keep the coins and bills inside, police report.
Upon further examination, it was discovered this was a WW1 round containing a hidden treasure of coins and bills ranging from the 1800’s and early 1900’s. The non-live round was turned over to the bomb squad and treasure left with family. pic.twitter.com/pP4BbPG0Jc
