“Mr Driscoll’s picture showed an Action Man plastic figure and in the background was a toy mortar gun, around six inches tall. The mortar gun was next to a TV remote control clearly showing its small size but someone who saw it contacted police. Five officers, including two armed with submachine guns, then arrived at his home in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire. Mr Driscoll said: ‘I was shocked and stunned. It was just mad. Five officers turned up in unmarked police cars. They flashed the search warrant in my face and said it was lucky I was in so they didn’t have to break my door down.'”
