Specialist police arrived at a secret location this afternoon to detonate two devices that were found under Tom Ugly's Bridge yesterday at around 12.30pm.
The·large contingent of specialist emergency services was called to undertake a detonation operation near the headlands of Malabar.
Police Detectives, supported by the NSW Rescue & Bomb Disposal Squad, Forensic Services, NSW Fire & Rescue Hazmat and Special Operations Ambulance all worked together to render two devices safe.
The first device detonated was a pipe bomb, and the second was a gas cylinder.
Both devices were safely removed from the "NABCO" chamber by a police officer·wearing a "Bomb Suit". The first "pipe bomb" device was laid in place and a charge was used to blow off the end cap. The second charge was·seen to have a larger explosion to destroy·a gas cylinder.
Fire hazmat crews monitored the air and placed devices to detect threats such as radiation.
Both devices were found to be benign and are now being examined by forensic services.
