Construction workers at the San Diego International Airport’s Terminal 1 dug up a grenade Thursday, prompting a response from law enforcement. The grenade was old and inert, meaning it had been hollowed out as a training tool and did not have the potential to explode,

The incident did not impact the airport's operations since the ordnance did not have the capability to explode, the Port says.
