It turns out this morning's grenade scare in Tauranga was a false alarm.
The grenade that led to evacuations at the Port of Tauranga this morning was found to be a realistic looking replica of a German stick grenade.
A specialist New Zealand Defence Force bomb squad were called in to inspect the grenade after it was found by customs staff during a routine container X-ray.
