Border officials in Sweden found a huge stash of weapons when they stopped a "zombie hunter" vehicle trying to enter to country from Germany.
The couple arrived in Malmo, Sweden, on a ferry in late March, border officials told local media this week. The German couple were reportedly moving to the country in the middle of the coronavirus outbreak.
The unusual vehicle stood out immediately to border guards, the customs agency told Sweden’s SVT News.
The Hummer had "Zombie Response Team" printed on the passenger door, along with a phrase at the back that said "Infected People Will Be Shot".
Customs officials checked inside the vehicle and found rifles, pistols, several crossbows, teargas guns and canisters, shock devices and a slingshot.
Prosecutor Michelle Stein told SVT News: "No information has emerged in the interrogations that they were planning to shoot zombies.
"It's because they come in a car that has such decals on it that causes the Customs Administration to react.
"They were moving to Sweden and packed up parts of their household goods, including these items. But they believe they did not know that permission was required to bring it into the country."
The pair are now being prosecuted for trying to import weapons that require a permit, STV News said.
The couple reportedly said they did not know that the weapons were required to be licensed in Sweden and that they had no intention to use them.
