Right, so, you’ve read the headline. A man has been arrested by Warwickshire police and sentenced to four months in jail after walking down a town centre street carrying a replica of the Master Sword from the Legend of Zelda.
As detailed in a release from the rozzers (that’s slang for police if you’re not from the UK), Anthony Bray of Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England, recieved that sentence after being charged with “possession of a bladed article in public”.
That amounted to carrying the “small replica” of the Master Sword from Zelda, which the release identifies as having a six inch long blade, down a street in Nuneaton on June 8, with officers approaching Bray after he was spotted doing so on CCTV.
