The Taylorville Police Department is warning against a sudden outbreak in people with “fake guns” or even lesser-used guns like B.B. or pellet guns. TPD is not saying you can’t have them but more of just to be on the alert that this is going on. Officer Alan Mills of the Taylorville Police Department says that these guns can pose a danger as police have gotten some calls about this going on.

Officer Mills wants to avoid a situation where police may think that a person has a real gun or weapon, or someone else that may react if they think you have a real gun or weapon especially if that other person has a conceal/carry permit.

If you have any questions please contact the Taylorville Police Department.
