RCMP warn about “Senior Assassin” game in the Maritimes

A game catching on among graduating high school students across Canada has caught the attention of police. The game involves using water guns, where graduates set out to eliminate fellow students. The game is meant to be a harmless activity, but police warn it can pose safety risks and could easily lead to dangerous misunderstandings. The water guns are often painted to look like real guns, which can result in an armed police response. Efforts to avoid being “tagged” may also lead to unlawful or unsafe behaviour, including trespassing and erratic driving, placing both students and the public at risk. The RCMP encourages students and parents to be aware of these concerns and to make safe, responsible choices.
