A maintenance worker found a grenade near the Carter Barron Amphitheater in Rock Creek Park early this morning. There’s some confusion over whether the grenade is “live” or not — the Post quotes a U.S. Park Police spokesperson as saying the grenade is genuine and not a toy, while WTOP has a source saying the grenade is live. An Army bomb squad is on the scene to deal with the device.

16th Street between Military Road and Colorado Avenue was closed for at least two hours this morning, but the road has since reopened. The AP also says that several homes were evacuated along 16th Street.
