Explosive Devices Found In Water Off Huntington Harbour

LOS ANGELES -- Divers worked Wednesday to remove at least eight commerical grade explosives discovered in the harbor here, imposing a cell phone ban to prevent accidental detonation.

The explosives were described as blasting caps used to trigger large explosions in mines and other sites and were considered highly unstable, said Jim Amormino, spokesman for the Orange County Sheriff's Department.

They are about the size of shotgun pellets and were spread over a 150-yard area beneath nine to 15 feet of water, he said. They appeared to be intentionally placed on the ocean floor, he added.

"They are very unstable in salt water. They do pose a threat to the divers, any swimmers, any boaters in the area," he said. "Cell phone signals can detonate those explosives" so a "no cell phone" zone was ordered for several hundred feet surrounding the shoreline, Amormino said.(snip)

I question the size and intention reported!

They are about the size of shotgun pellets...

I assume they meant that they are the size of a shotgun shell. Shotgun pellets are pretty small.
