The bomb squad determined the mortar was too unstable to be moved so it was detonated near where it was found.
“The blast was heard from a distance, which caused alarm for many residents,” Lebanon police said on social media. “We appreciate everyone’s concerns and phone calls.”
Authorities searched the area for more mortars before deeming it safe.
