An anonymous guy exchanged a 4-foot-long surface-to-air missile launcher for size-3 Reebok sneakers. It happened at the Kicks for Guns 2007 program, in which Orlando citizens can turn in any weapon in exchange for sneakers or $50 in cash, no questions asked. Check Orlando Police Sgt. Barbara Jones holding the actual piece of equipment…
The guy said that he found the launcher in a shed last week. The Orlando Sentinel reported that [he] didn’t know what to do with it.

“I’m an iPod guy,” he said.
