The man told police he heard footsteps approaching and then the sound of windows smashing. He turned to see four males next to his car and one of the men was smashing the car windows with a garden gnome.
One of the men then punched the driver several times in the face before he produced what was believed was a black-coloured gun. The driver was punched again by the man before cash was taken from the driver’s wallet. The four men then ran from the scene. The driver returned to his house and contacted police who attended a short time later.
Officers from Fairfield Local Area Command established a crime scene at the location and secured the victim’s car. A garden gnome and a toy black pistol were found nearby and secured for forensic examination. Fairfield detectives are conducting investigations into the robbery and are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the robbery to contact police.

Once again, an excellent choice of image.
Cheers, Ratz!
It would never even have _occurred_ to me to search for a photo of a garden gnome holding a gun! You are a strange, strange, individual, Arbroath!
And I enjoy your site every day.

Heh heh, thanks Lurker111!
This toy's gun seems real. I also like toys closer to real objects. With my passion for toy cars, I started exploring Arduino cars. Whether you are learning about Arduino, programming robots, exploring hydro-powered cars, or designing your own DIY creations with lego-like building sets, kids will love playing with these engineering gift ideas. These engineering toys and kits are some of the best Hydraulic Toys and will provide hours of discovery for kids and adults!
