Sick, Sad World News Story of the Day: A Brazilian man held a 60-year-old woman hostage for ten hours with a Sega Light Phaser.
The police eventually talked him down and the hostage was released unharmed.
The original Sega Light Phasers, which, in most cases, are probably worth more than the $111 this man was trying to obtain, had to be modified because parents were concerned that they might be confused for real guns.
