MILWAUKEE -- Children playing in a neighborhood near Palmer and Chambers Tuesday afternoon, August 28th came upon a grenade.
TheMilwaukee Police Department's Hazardous Devices Unit was called to the scene and took the grenade away from the scene -- to a safe place where it can be detonated.

The Bomb Squad used a robotic device to collect the grenade and remove it from the scene.
No one was injured.
At this time, it is unclear whether the grenade was live or not.
