Discovered bomb on INKB property
In the city of Ingolstadt, an unexpected find has been made during construction work at the Municipal Utilities. The Press Office of the city has issued a statement confirming that an American air-dropped bomb from World War II was discovered at Hindemithstraße.
The bomb disposal team has been called in to assess and safely defuse or remove the bomb, a common procedure in Germany due to the large number of unexploded bombs from WWII still buried underground, particularly in urban and industrial areas undergoing development or infrastructure work.
The exact location of the bomb discovery is Hindemithstraße, and the authorities are currently investigating the situation. No new details about the nature or size of the bomb have been provided.
Evacuation of apartments and offices within approximately 300 meters of the discovery site has begun, and security forces have cordoned off the premises as a precautionary measure. Thankfully, no reports of injuries or damages due to the bomb discovery have been made.
As the situation unfolds, the city's website archive has provided a symbol image to keep the public informed. Defusal of the bomb is expected to take place in the afternoon.
The authorities are urging the public to stay informed and follow any instructions provided by local authorities. Further updates regarding the evacuation zone and the progress of the bomb disposal will be shared as they become available.
