Headline: Police Confiscate Sword; Get Mocked Online

Caption: A picture of a British Policeman holding a confiscated sword has been playfully mocked online. The Met Police officer was snapped Friday (11 Jan) wearing a bicycle helmet and a serious expression while cradling a Games Of Thrones-style sword. London's Northumberland Heath Police said: "This sword was found during the search of a vehicle earlier today in Slade Green. Investigation now under way. Thankfully it's been taken off the streets." However, side-splitting internet comments followed, including: Kurt Westensee: "Everyone is making fun of this. But what they aren't admitting is sword related deaths in England have plummeted over the last thousand years." West Lake: "You're doing God's work mate lost an ancestor to a sword just like that in the 13th century." Jake Rice: "Don't come crying to us when you have a dragon infestation and nothing to slay them with." Liam Fielding: "You could get 50 gold from a merchant if you sold that."
