It probably seemed like a good idea at the time but
this take on the mannequin challenge landed two people in police custody.
The video shows a mock shoot out between two ‘gangs’
in Hunstville, Alabama, with numerous people clutching firearms as the pretend
to fire at each other.
However, after footage went viral it was handed to
police who decided to investigate and later arrested Kenneth White, 49, and Terry Brown.
Investigators said they were able to obtain enough
probable cause to get a search warrant for the home.‘You have a lot of people with firearms at one address,’
Capt. Mike Salomonsky told WHNT.
‘And you have to ask yourself the question, ‘Why?’
and the second question you have to ask yourself: is it a public safety issue?’
A search of the home found two hand guns, one assault rifle, one older
single barrel shotgun, multiple packs of marijuana, an attack vest, multiple
magazines for the assault rifle, multiple rounds of ammunition and a computer.White has been charged with first-degree possession
of marijuana and certain persons forbidden to possess a firearm. He has a bond
of $30,000.
Brown has been charged with possession of drug
paraphernalia, loitering and promoting prison contraband.
