A BOMB scare led to part of a town being closed off today after a device was found at an allotment site.

Police and firefighters put in a 100metre exclusion zone in part of Great Yarmouth after a member of the public reported finding a suspected unexploded bomb.

Bomb disposal experts from the army barracks in Colchester were called and they found the device was an inert shell which did not pose a risk.
