Student dressed as Rambo arrested over plastic toy knife
A student who dressed up as Rambo for a night out with friends was arrested because his outfit included a plastic toy knife.
Anthony Radley, 21, was made up as the film character played by Sylvester Stallone when he was spotted by police officers.
But whilst his red bandana, face paint, string vest and combat trousers were perfectly acceptable to officers, his six inch toy knife was not and he was arrested.
He was due to appear at Nottingham Magistrates Court on Wednesday to fight an £80 fine police imposed, but the Crown Prosecution Service has now decided not to pursue its case.
"The maths and sports science graduate was arrested and held in a cell for three hours before he was charged with causing public alarm".
In my view, the actions of the authorities should be cause for public alarm. Utter madness. They'll be arresting babies next for sucking on their dummies!

Political correctness gone too far, just for being dressed as a Samb... ah, sorry. You said Rambo, I thought you said......
