A person doing a walkthrough of an abandoned property in Kansas City, Kansas, on Friday found what they said was a Claymore-type explosive device, a police spokesman said.

The Kansas City, Kansas, Police Department’s bomb disposal unit responded to the possible explosive found in the 7200 block of Forest Drive, said Officer T.J. Thomasic with the Kansas City, Kansas, Police Department.

Members of the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives also responded to the area in or near the Quivira Hills Estates mobile home community.

Police were unable to determine if the device was active. They removed the possible explosive and took it to a location where they investigated it further and disposed of it.
