Gotta Love The French – Cops Lose Explosives During Sniffer Dog Airport Training Session

French Police can give a giant facepalm to themselves after losing explosives in an airport during a training exercise...

Losing your car-keys and cellphone is one thing. Losing track of a bomb is another thing.

Policemen in Marseille, France, seemingly lost a pack of explosives in the airport, after it was hidden in the cargo area as part of a training exercise for sniffer dogs.

Well, the reliable pooches weren’t up to scratch that day, and the explosives slipped through the cracks to… somewhere.

The police have put the snafu down to “negligent supervision” and are still on the lookout for the missing explosives, so keep an eye out!

Police also reassured the public that the material is harmless without a firing device, which probably went missing too.
