Sebeka, Minn. -- A police chief in a central Minnesota town who reported ammunition and stun grenades missing found them in his children's backyard fort, authorities say.

The Otter Tail Sheriff's Department said Sebeka Police Chief Eric Swenson reported the items missing Friday from his home. Besides the stun grenades and loaded magazines for a Glock 9 mm handgun and an AR-15 rifle, the missing arsenal included gas grenades, gas shotgun rounds, a police radio and a pair of night vision goggles, the Fergus Falls (Minn.) Journal reported Wednesday.

The department said Swenson called again Monday to report he had found the missing items. He told deputies one of his children had taken them and put them in his play fort.
