Armed nine year olds

Some nine year old kid was waving a toy gun around while his mom was inside getting her hair done when a cop came by, pulled his service revolver, and had the kid lie down on the ground as he arrested him. I can understand being cautious approaching someone who may be armed but the kid was nine for goodness sakes. And then why was he arrested when he found out it was a toy gun? That is what children do. They play!!. I don't think I could have grown up in this day and age. I had enough toy guns to invade a make believe "axis of evil" country.
