Odyssey Middle School

This week, the Army Corps of Engineers found more bomb debris at Odyssey Middle School, which was the old Pinecastle Jeep Range.

Thirty-one pounds of munitions, along with 2,500 pounds of other debris, were found during the search.

The work was done while students were on Thanksgiving break. The Corps said around 50 percent of the search was completed.

They plan to search the rest of the property next month when students are off around Christmas.

In addition, several fired missiles were uncovered, along with two rockets that contained explosives. They will be detonated Saturday afternoon.

The nearby Tivoli Gardens subdivision will also be searched in the coming weeks.
