　　A 3-year-old British boy on an Easter egg hunt Saturday morning, discovered a live hand grenade, the Daily Mail reported。

　　The boy was actually standing on the device when an adult, Mr Moffatt, spotted him。

　　He said: "We were beginning to count the eggs at the end of the hunt and I saw a boy of three standing on an object."

　　The grenade, believed to be a Second World War relic, was found in a field next to a busy road. The bomb disposal team carried out a controlled explosion。

　　男孩找彩蛋踩中手榴弹

　　据英国《每日邮报》报道，周六早晨，一名来自英国的3岁小男孩正在寻找复活节彩蛋，不料却发现了一枚尚可引爆的手榴弹。

　　当时男孩踩在了手榴弹上，正巧被一名男子莫法特看见。

　　他表示：“当时寻找复活节彩蛋的活动已经接近尾声，我们正在数找到了多少枚彩蛋，正巧看到了一个3岁小男孩踩在了一个东西上。”

　　这个棕色的东西大约4英寸长，看起来很像一个复活节彩蛋，但事实上却是一枚手榴弹。

　　这枚手榴弹应该是二战时留下的，被埋在闹市街区旁的一块地里。后来，拆弹组安全引爆了这枚手榴弹。
