Police Told Gun Was Toy

The family of a 13-year-old Florida boy shot by police say officers were told the gun he held was not real.

Ralph Penley said when he arrived at the Millwee Middle School in suburban Orlando on Friday morning, he told Seminole County Sheriff`s deputies his son Christopher only had a replica pistol, CNN said. The boy`s younger brother says he told school officials the same thing.

Why should authorities have taken their word for it? They're only "civilians." And you know how they lie.
