Why throw him in a cell when you see it's just a mp3 player? It's like you get thrown in jail just for approaching a police these days.

He won't be getting those dna and fingerprints erased either.

This reminds me of a story I read recently about a guy who decided to test Virginia's "open carry" law with firearms.  Of course, this person actually HAD a gun and not an MP3 player.

Seeing "Man arrested at gunpoint..." in the GNR section, I was really hoping to open this thread and read that some fan had gone nuts with the wait and had gotten arrested while trying to steal the CD recordings.

I wonder if he really was listening to CD or if the author of the story threw that in there as a joke.

It turns out the arresting officer was none other than Here Today! Gone To Hell's own timebomb. Stopping the spread of mp3 bootlegs, one perpetrator at a time.

Regular police don't have guns, there is a special armed police division though that get called out if a criminal is armed themselves.
