    Teens receive warning after being found with imitation handgun in Burnaby mall

    A group of teens who were found shooting gel paintball rounds inside the food court area of Metropolis at Metrotown in Burnaby were given a warning by the police after one of the teens was discovered with an imitation handgun. The Burnaby RCMP, who were patrolling inside the mall on the evening of April 21, seized the airsoft gun which closely resembled a handgun. The police found the group of teens near other mall patrons and took several of them into custody. The parents and guardians of the teens were spoken to by the officers, and the group was released with warnings. However, security has banned the teens from the mall.

    According to Cpl. Mike Kalanj with Burnaby RCMP, the actions of the teens were reckless and created a dangerous situation for everyone in the area. He emphasized that not only were the youth putting members of the public at risk, but the presence of an airsoft gun that closely resembled a real handgun was an additional concern for both the public and police.

    The Burnaby RCMP is reminding people that imitation firearms, including airsoft guns, bb guns, and pellet guns, can be incredibly difficult to distinguish from authentic firearms, and therefore pose a real risk to safety.

    Margaret J. Garcia Chief Editor, Paintball Magazine. I have been playing paintball for over 15 years, and I'm passionate about all aspects of the sport. As the chief editor of Paintball Magazine, I have the privilege of sharing my knowledge and expertise with fellow players and enthusiasts around the world. I graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) with a degree in Journalism and Mass Communication. During my time at UCLA, I wrote for the school newspaper and gained valuable experience working in various media outlets. After graduating from UCLA, I started working as a staff writer for Paintball Magazine, where I covered gear reviews, player profiles, and event recaps. Over time, I worked my way up to become the chief editor, overseeing the entire publication and managing a team of writers and contributors. I have strong writing and editing skills, as well as a deep understanding of the paintball community and the latest trends and developments in the sport. I also have excellent communication skills and the ability to work well under pressure and tight deadlines. When I'm not playing paintball or working on the magazine, I enjoy hiking, camping, and exploring the outdoors. I also love trying new foods and traveling to new places around the world. My mission as the chief editor of Paintball Magazine is to provide accurate, engaging, and informative content that helps players of all skill levels improve their game and deepen their love for the sport. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned pro, I believe that there's always something new to learn and discover in the world of paintball.
