Armed police swarmed London’s Canary Wharf on Saturday, and accomplished what Captain America failed to do in his 2014 film: apprehend the Winter Soldier. Or at least someone dressed like the Winter Soldier.

 

According to the Daily Mirror, London Metropolitan Police responded to a report of a man with a shotgun in the business district, and quickly arrested a 29-year-old at West India Quay station. Although one witness quoted feared he was watching an attempted terrorist attack, it turns out the guy was a cosplayer, likely attending the weekend convention in Brighton.

 

 

Police later released a statement saying they believed the weapon to be an air rifle, which was underscored in a tweet from the Canary Wharf Group: “Reports of man with firearm at Canary Wharf are incorrect. Man was carrying non lethal Airsoft hobby equipment.”

Sad but the reality of our world today...you can't walk around in the streets with what looks like a gun....people will think you are really going to kill them. because it's really happening....

In some states you can walk around with open carrying rights.
