The fact was recorded in the automated information system of the Internal Affairs Department of the Lenin District. As a result of the investigation, it was found that a 35-year-old man named S.M. was setting off firecrackers on the street, and in his hands was a toy gun, which caused witnesses to feel that he was shooting from a real firearm.

The actions of this citizen caused concern among local residents, which led to the call to the police.

A protocol was drawn up against the man under the article "Minor Hooliganism" of the Code of Offenses of the Kyrgyz Republic. He was placed in temporary detention.

Law enforcement agencies reminded that the use of pyrotechnics and items that imitate weapons in public places can lead to misunderstandings and panic, as well as entail legal responsibility. Residents were urged to maintain order and avoid such actions.
