The Douglas County Bomb Squad used its bomb robot to detonate some old dynamite found in Colorado. According to investigators, the old dynamite was found inside a metal container in a residential shed. 

They said the container was one typically used on construction sites and belonged to a former resident who owned a construction company. 

According to the bomb squad, dynamite can become extremely unstable with age, and so they deployed Johnny-5-0, a bomb robot, to safely remove the device. 

Investigators said the device was carefully transported to a secure location and placed in a pre-dug blast pit. It was counter-charged with an explosive. Once the robot backed off, the team initiated an "emergency disposal," which resulted in a controlled detonation and "complete deflagration" of the suspected dynamite. 

The Douglas County Bomb Squad said that anyone who comes across old explosives, dynamite or suspicious devices to not touch them and call the DCSO Bomb Squad immediately.
