A crude bomb went off at a RSS worker's house near here Saturday, injuring his child and its friend, police said.

The incident occurred when the children, aged 8 and 12, apparently pulled some objects out of a shed in the house while playing, the police said.

Police arrived at the scene and a search of the house yielded seven swords, an axe and a steel rod.

A case under Explosive Substances Act and Arms Act has been registered in this connection, police sources told PTI.

Meanwhile, the children with injuries in their arms and legs were taken to hospital.
