Wed, March 31, 2010 
Colin Furze the plumber who created the flamethrower scooter was arrested on Thursday. He's being charged with suspicion of possessing an object to convert into a firearm. Police arrested Colin after seeing photos the press released showing him riding his scooter on public highways. He is currently out on bail until his court date in May. Possession of a firearm in the UK carries a maximum prison sentence of 5 to 7 years. Who'd have thought driving around shooting 15 ft flames out of a scooter would get you in trouble?
