Anthony Bray, 48, was stopped by the police in Nuneaton on June 8 after he was spotted walking with a sword visible in his hand. According to the police, Bray claimed that the sword was a "fidget" toy he had bought online to keep his hands busy, which is typically used as a small toy for individuals with anxiety or other conditions. However, Warwickshire Police identified Bray via CCTV footage and did not accept his excuse, considering the replica Master Sword from Nintendo's Legend of Zelda series as an illegal weapon.
