CHARLESTON, S.C. — An old military weapon that appears to be decades old was found in Charleston Tuesday by a crew doing work.
The ordnance was dug up at 1300 Meeting Street by a construction crew.
The Air Force Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team went to the scene. No word on the kind or how it found it's way to Meeting Street.
Several streets in Charleston had to be closed for a few hours and people were evacuated for 1,000 feet in all directions.
The Air Force took the ordnance and will destroy it.
