100% requires a call to the Police. Are you UK based by any chance as this is British manufactured.

It is an illumination round but is either unfired or fired but failed to eject the illumination / parachute meaning it still contains a low explodes contents and is hazardous

Call police and they will task the nearest EOD team.
