A Sherwood Park homeowner got a shocking surprise while cleaning their home.

Emergency Crews were called to the Glen Allan home on Monday just after 6 p.m. as the homeowner reported finding what they believed to be a grenade.

Residents are asked to use caution when dealing with potential explosives, and to contact police immediately.
