Fortunately, a tragedy didn't occur during a police operation carried out in Villa La Lonja, in Córdoba capital.
While the Police of Córdoba was deploying a major security operation, residents threw a hand grenade at the officers.
According to official sources, the procedure led to the apprehension of two people, alleged perpetrators of various crimes, including a 15-year-old teenager who has a criminal record.
The situation became critical when people from the neighborhood tried to prevent the police work by throwing blunt objects and a hand grenade.
Given the risk posed by the device, the authorities established a preventive cordon to protect residents and officers, and they immediately requested the intervention of the Explosives Department.
It was an FMK-2 grenade, which was deactivated and removed from the place using specific techniques, and it was later transferred to a safe area, thus avoiding more serious consequences.
