‘Cartoon’ guns cause police danger, ire
FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
Hello Kitty stickers are causing police officers fits nationwide, the
University of Florida student newspaper reported.
Automatic weapons painted pink and covered in Hello Kitty and
flower stickers are a prime example of the increasing trend of criminals
painting real guns to look like toys, according to a notice recently circulated among
officers at the Gainesville, Fla., police department.
The paint job is intended to fool the observer, said Lt. Rob Koehler of GPD’s Tactical
Impact Unit. “If you saw this, your initial impulse would be, This is a toy,” he said.
Koehler said these guns are more dangerous to police because they can cause officers
to hesitate from using force or avoiding danger.
NOTED. An out-of-work, poverty-stricken
South Korean man has been detained for cook
ing his landlady's pet dog.
While he was cooking the chihuahua he set
fire to his clothes. Firefighters were called after
neighbors saw smoke rising from his home. They
caught the man under the influence of alcohol.
He said he cooked the dog because he was
hungry.
