One in New Jersey,
A Jersey City woman made a shocking discovery on her lawn this morning when she noticed a military rocket launcher lying in the grass.
Niranjana Besai was leaving her house, located at 88 Nelson Street, to go to work just after 8 this morning when she spotted the launcher on her front lawn. “I read it and it [said] ‘missile,’” Besai told CBS 2 HD. “There was little ‘missile’ [writing] on it.” She immediately called police. (VIDEO)
...and Tampa,
Authorities said a Patriot missile has been found in a Tampa scrap metal yard.
Explosives experts at MacDill Air Force Base were called to the scrap yard on July 11 to identify an odd-looking object in a heap of junk.
The experts said the object was a surface-to-air missile, minus its warhead; so it's harmless. They said the missile appeared to be a training model, and still had its rocket motor and guidance system.What the experts don't know is how the missile ended up in the scrap yard.
That's two in ten days, a bizarre coincidence in the least. There's probably nothing to it, but still troubling.
