Cordon relaxed after bomb disposal team examines grenades found in Lowestoft

Police have relaxed the exclusion zone around a property in Lowestoft where two grenades and a stash of chemicals were found.

Officers carried out a pre-planned raid at Normanhurst Close just before 1pm on Sunday, July 28.

Sixty properties were evacuated after police found some unidentified chemicals as well as the military grenades.

A 100m cordon was also initially put in place while army bomb disposal experts were called in.

That has since been relaxed although three properties, as well as the house where the chemicals were found, remain closed off.

A man in his 50s was arrested on suspicion of possessing a firearm and remains in custody.
