Last month, the newly-rebranded Tank 77 Museum in Taber hired a new manager, Taia DeBona. She immediately got to work sorting through old boxes in the archives — a daunting task for such a small organization. “There, sitting in one of the boxes was the grenade. At the time, I just thought, oh it’s just a prop because in the same box there were tons of props and kids toys.” When they did contact Taber police, she says officers took it seriously and evacuated the area. On the Taber Police Service’s Facebook page, they directed the public to stay away. “In an abundance of caution, the museum and the Aquafun Centre were closed. Taber Police will remain on scene until bomb disposal experts can deal with the grenade.” https://lnkd.in/gyhJjuEi
