ZURICH: Police started a manhunt to find the victim of an armed kidnapping only to discover it was a re-enactment by two fans of scenes from detective films.
Passers-by called the police late on Monday after seeing a man pulled into a car. After a widespread search, authorities found the car and two Airsoft guns, which they said looked similar to real weapons. Police arrested two men, who revealed the episode had just been for show.
