said he was unloading items into the MOR Music emporium where he works in Fossgate yesterday morning when he spotted what he supposed to be a live .22 bullet gleaming in a puddle.
He said he immediately called the cops, who came and took it away.
No doubt in an armoured paddywagon.
"I have no idea what it was doing there," he said.
Probably an unusually wimpy IED.
A North Yorkshire bobby droid said the bullet had been put into safe storage, and the local gumshoes had confirmed it was not thought to be connected with any incident currently under investigation.
He asked anyone with any information about the bullet and how it came to be in Fossgate to phone the force on xxx xxx xxxx.
The number is at the link, in case you want to phone the N. Yorkshire bobbies and tell them
