Cop Kills Man Wielding Toy Gun
Remember those plastic Zebra guns that come with the yellow pellets and were great for shooting people during study hall? Well, a rookie cop mistook a painted one (pictured) of those for a real weapon and shot a 22-year-old man dead in Brooklyn after he allegedly pointed it at him and refused to drop it. |NYDN|

Editor-in-Chief:
What kind of moron would paint a toy gun to look like a real gun and then point it at a cop?
A dead one.
Dude was up to no good with that paint job. We all had them shits but never painted 'em up like that, and never got shot by the 5-o either. Don't defend the dead loser, even his daddy ain't. and….
If a cop tells you to drop it, do it, you already been caught son. Every year some doofus get himself shot this way and I ain't tryin' to feel bad about it. For the wannabe criminal masterminds out there some advice- don't get yourself in this situation, get your creep on correct.
