BB Gun KidThe AP reports that a teenager in Cedar Rapids, Iowa tried to scare a random driver with his BB gun. He pointed the gun at an unmarked cop car, the policemen got out and pointed back with their real .40-caliber Glock handguns. Wow! He said he was trying to scare people for the Halloween spirit.

"They thought it was a real gun," police Lt. Kenneth Washburn said. "He dropped the gun and attempted to run and was apprehended."

Shelton told officers he was "just playing around" and trying to scare people during the Halloween night incident, police said.

The police charged him for "assault while displaying a dangerous weapon." He was later released to relatives.
