Called local police. They cleared out houses around mine and across street for an hour, until the experts came and took it away.
If it is inert, do you get it back?
I was thinking that it might be possible to tell if it's armed just by weighing it. Of course you would need to know the weights of an empty and a "full" one.
The wikipedia picture of it has what looks like a "safety" pin/clamp around the center of the tube. The garage one doesn't have that. Could mean that it's been used, or that it's armed and ready to go.
