Posted July 7, 200619 yr Green Day save girl (Wednesday June 14, 2006 10:16 AM) Green Day have been credited with saving the life of a young fan, after she found a live hand grenade in her garden in Halifax. Ten homes in the city were evacuated yesterday and a 100-yard exclusion zone installed around the area where the explosive was discovered, in Keighley Road, Ovenden. Ruby Wilson, 12, found the device while clearing leaves from the garden. She identified the grenade from her Green Day t-shirt for the band's "American Idiot" album. An army disposal unit was dispatched to the scene of the incident, after Ruby picked up the grenade and showed it to her father. She explained: "I saw what looked like a round metal object and realised it looked like a hand grenade. "My dad told me to put it down carefully on the ground. But I wasn't very worried because I thought it was too old to be dangerous." Her dad, Johnny Wilson commented: "We were surprised when we found out it was live because the police told us in most cases they are not. "We were shocked that it had been just outside our house and was capable of exploding." The girl needed a Green Day album cover to know what a grenade was. :rolleyes: Jesus wept.
