ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. -- A bomb fuse containing enough gunpowder to blow off a person's limb if picked up was found near an Orange County middle school built close to a former World War II bombing range.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said crews found a live fuse attached to a training bomb a few hundred feet from a fence at Odyssey Middle School in Orange County and near the Warwick subdivision.

The found fuse had a few grams of gunpowder with it, according to officials.

Recently, parents expressed concern after the Army Corps of Engineers announced they were searching an area near the school and a neighborhood for live munitions.

"I can't see, possibly, as a parent, taking my son here," parent Candy Aquina said.

A chain-linked fence was erected between the school campus and the former bombing range as a precaution.

"I am very concerned with these neighborhoods," Army Corps of Engineers representative Charles Fales said in an earlier report. "But I'm not calling this an emergency."

Officials said there was no reason for concern over the latest discovery and students are safe at the school.

"We have been assured that Odyssey Middle School which is our property out there has nothing to fear at all at this time," Orange County Schools representative Dylan Thomas said.

Engineers will be back at the site Wednesday and plan to detonate the gunpowder found with the fuse.
