Teens re-enacting game mistaken for kidnappers

A group of young people who donned masks and used fake guns to re-enact a popular online game were mistaken for kidnappers.

A 29-year-old man from Chengdu, capital of Sichuan province, saw the masked players in an abandoned house next to a road and called police. The teenage boys were playing Counter-Strike using realistic-looking black toy guns.
