Three students filming in Great Neck Plaza with movie prop guns that fire blanks were arrested and given appearance tickets for filming without a permit after police responded, a Nassau County police spokeswoman said.
“They were doing a student film with fake guns. We didn’t know it at the time,” the spokeswoman said. “They didn’t have a permit to do that particular filming.”
The incident occurred in a parking lot on Maple Street on Friday afternoon, police said.
