A startling find behind a Jack in the Box in Turlock, a bazooka!

This is very unusual, but the rocket launcher was found at a fast food restaurant in Turlock.

Cops say an employee found the weapon while taking out the trash near the dumpster behind the establishment.

Ready to go at any time, the Stanislaus County Bomb Squad is trained to defuse the toughest situations. But this week, they got a call they would never forget. They were called to handle the bazooka which was found with a few rounds.

While Turlock Police warned people inside the Jack in the Box, Sergeant Ralph with the Sheriff's department geared up. With his robot by his side, the veteran cop discovered that the rocket launcher did not work, and the missiles were no threat.

The bazooka does not work so deputies will not be shooting it off. But they'll be using it for technical purposes, in case a situation like this happens again.
