Authorities later located the suspect in a Dollar General parking lot nearby, still in possession of the fake pistol concealed in his pants. The original 1984 NES Zapper is well-known for its bright orange and gray color scheme. However, investigators discovered that the suspect had spray-painted the accessory black, presumably to give it the appearance of a functional firearm. The York County Sheriff’s Department shared an image of the altered gaming accessory on its official Twitter account.
