A man with a history of mental illness was tackled and caught by a hospital security guard after he entered an emergency room in Detroit with two live grenades late Saturday.
The incident occurred after the man was searched when he triggered a metal detector, authorities said.
The emergency room was evacuated and no one was injured.Police said the 44-year-old man has a military background and that the grenades were the kind used in training and were less powerful than those that would be used in combat.
Police also searched the unnamed man's home and found two pipe bombs and two grenades.
The man is now in hospital for evaluation.
