Photo: DPAA 51-year-old man is under investigation after his possibly illegal collection of Second World War munitions exploded on Monday, setting off a major police operation. It was then discovered that a box of explosives from the Second World War was being hoarded at the home. Exactly how many old weapons were found at the home was not initially clear, according to the Kölner Stadt-Anzeiger. A 51-year-old man living in the house with his parents was arrested, and he is now being investigated for possible violations of weapons and explosives laws. The man told police that he had purchased the weapons at a flea market.
