A 14-year-old boy doing yard work uncovered a World War II-era bomb Monday near Fort Indiantown Gap in Lebanon County.

The bomb was found along the 200 block of Moonshine Road about 11 a.m. Monday.

It started as a typical day, said Tyler Varvel, 14.
Tyler Varvel said he was spraying to keep weeds down on a bank at the edge of the family yard when he saw something unusual.
"It was shiny, so I flicked it up with my shoe and it landed right here. It was a bomb, or a mortar or something," Tyler Varvel said.

He took a picture with his cellphone, stepped away from the mortar and called his mom, who just happened to be near the state police barracks in Lickdale and went in to get help.
