Multiple toy guns have been pulled from a Florida convenience store after a concerned customer complained they looked too realistic and could create potentially dangerous situations for children playing with them.
"I see this kid playing with a gun very similar with how Tamir Rice was [and] I said to myself, if a policeman or irate citizen were to pull up and see him playing with his gun like I would literally see a kid get killed," Way said. Way said he first went into the store last Wednesday to speak with the store owner, but wasn’t able to do so until Saturday. It was then that he explained to the store owner the dangers of selling such realistic-looking toy guns, he said.
The Citgo store owner, Muhammad Mia, told ABC Tampa Bay affiliate WFTS that after speaking with Way he not only took the toy guns off the shelf, but will no longer sell ones that don’t clearly mark they are fake.Way said he later learned of a federal law that requires any toy guns to have an orange plug inserted into the barrel. However there are exceptions to the law, including traditional BB, paintball, or pellet-firing air guns that expel a projectile through the force of air pressure.
