Transit Police in Boston were left red-faced after they rushed to apprehend a 'gunman' who was dressed as Boba Fett from Star Wars.
The costume was complete with a black helmet and replica gun
MBTA Transit Police tweeted: ‘Multiple […] units responded to Back Bay for report of a person armed w/a long rifle.‘Officers conversed with the individual & the scene was safe.’They wrote: ‘Okay hold on; let’s assume for a second it was a legit call: what were you guys gonna hope to do against Boba Fett?’
Another added: ‘I don’t think Han Solo would agree with the police assessment that being on the scene with Bobba Fett [sic] is safe.’Others were less impressed by the disturbance caused by the person’s costume.
