A man dressed up as “The Terminator” for Halloween — complete with live ammo strapped across his chest — sparked just a single 911 call after he walked onto campus at the University of Central Florida, authorities said.
UCF police responded to a campus classroom Tuesday after receiving a report of a suspicious person, WTVR reported.
When the cops arrived, they found the man dressed up as the famed Arnold Schwarzenegger character, complete with live rounds.
The man was detained, questioned and ultimately released after authorities determined there was no criminal intent behind his costume.
According to the news outlet, police said they received one call about the man wearing the real shells.
“We were surprised by only one call,” police said, according to WTVR. “It may be a costume, it may be more than a costume, but it’s our job as a police department to keep this campus safe.”
Authorities added: “While it’s not illegal, to have ammunition on campus, it certainly is in poor taste, given the events of the past week, and it raised the alarm to the point where we did receive a call, our officers responded, got there quickly, we were able to interview a few individuals on scene, made contact with this individual and determined that there was no threat to campus at that point.”
