Talladega park closed after military ammunition shells found on property

A popular off road trails park in Talladega was closed Thursday evening after a logger found what appear to be  15 to 20 ammunition shells on the property.  Authorities say a logger was moving some fallen trees in the Top Trails Park when he  uncovered what could be live ammunition.   The former Coosa Ammunition Depot Annex used to sit in the area where the shells were found. The Army vacated the land years ago and turned it over to the city, where the Top Trails Park is now being developed.   After the shells were found state bomb techs rushed to the scene from Anniston, where they happened to be training Thursday. They determined the shells could be explosive, but definitely do not contain any chemical weapons.  A crew from Fort Benning, Ga., will come to the park today and either remove the shells or detonate them on site.  The shells are 22 to 24 inches long and officials are uncertain of their age but they could date back to world war 2.
