Overview
- Workers found a roughly 30-centimeter explosive device during mowing at the Ebersberg wastewater-treatment plant, triggering an immediate emergency response.
- Police sealed off the treatment-plant area and a bomb-disposal unit arrived at the scene to assess the object.
- Authorities closed the Ebersberg–Wasserburg rail line because the device sits about 300 meters from the tracks and no restart time has been announced.
- Officials at the scene say the object is too small to endanger residents, but specialists have not yet confirmed the device’s type or origin.
- The discovery recalls repeated World War II-era ordnance finds in the district, including a large 2022 Grafing clearance that required weeks of manual work, and forensic checks will determine how long disruption lasts.
