CAVE JUNCTION, Ore.– While it’s always nice to pass on unused items to others, some things shouldn’t be shared.
That was the case yesterday when a local thrift store received quite the shock. The Senior Thrift Store in Cave Junction was evacuated yesterday after an employee opened a donated box to find a M60 military mortar.
Oregon State Police bomb squad was called in to remove it.
However, officials quickly realized the bomb was inert and didn’t pose a threat to the public.
It’s still uncertain who donated the box.
