Convenience Store Robbed at Gunpoint with Nintendo Duck Hunt Gun

A man was arrested for using a Nintendo Duck Hunt gun to hold up a convenience store for $300. Crimes committed using fake guns are on the rise and can carry similar consequences as if a real gun was used. This has been an ongoing problem since the mid to late 1980s, with a research project initiated by the U.S. Congress in 1990 finding that 15% of all robberies were committed with an imitation gun.
