A restaurant employee in a “Star Wars” costume was detained in Canada after 911 callers reported seeing someone in a Stormtrooper costume with a gun, police say.
“The weapon was ultimately confirmed to be a fake firearm,” the statement said. The woman was not arrested, the statement added, but suffered a minor injury that didn’t require medical attention.
“When she was told to drop the blaster, she did,” he said. Whalen said it was also difficult to move in the $1,200 costume, which he decided to use for the promotion when showing “Star Wars” films to customers wasn’t an option for May 4.Whalen, a carpenter, spent $200,000 opening the shop in January.
