A puzzlement

[commodorified]

So, an unexploded shell of indeterminate age has been removed from a house in Toronto and taken to CFB Borden to be destroyed.

Noting that all has ended well and everybody is fine, so I can afford to be trivial:

A man who had just bought a home on the street discovered the shell in the house's garage

I think that the homeowner would be well within his rights to request that the fee for the customary pre-purchase home inspection be refunded in full. I mean, unless he waived inspection, which would be very unusual, or it's on page 12: "Garage — foundation good, roof in need of repair, unexploded ordnance behind workbench" and the purchaser just didn't read the whole thing.
