Unexploded charges left in building…

Unexploded ordnance discovered in imploded building.

Demolition crews responsible for the destruction of Building 82 in Charleston, West Virginia in the US left unexploded ordnance behind after they imploded the building on March 28. The South Charleston landmark, the former headquarters for Union Carbide, was blown up in a public ceremony to pave the way for development by the University of Charleston.

However, Sgt. Keith Vititoe, head of the Kanawha County Sheriff’s Department bomb squad, said firefighters and other emergency responders on a training exercise immediately following the destruction of the building found unexploded charges inside.
