Christian Movie Reviews delayed after actor is arrested for carrying a gun in public.

While shooting a trailer for the new movie, "Jesus Loves Kool-Aid", Christian movie reviews have been delayed following the arrest of Hugh Mclean being charged with "unlawful possession of a weapon"

Police were called to a downtown Richardson Street underground car park, following reports that a man was waving a gun around. There was indeed a man waving a gun around, a .357 magnum to be exact. When they arrived they found the gunman, but not how they expected. Instead of a lone man waving a gun around, they found actor Hugh Mclean with a gun tucked in his pants, with a film crew shooting the movie trailer.

Police officer Cpl. Jason Rampey said, "I think they could have obtained the same effect using a replica or toy or imitation weapon of some kind, and not a real .357 revolver."

The movie "Jesus Loves Kool-Aid" is aimed at keeping children away from guns, drugs and gangs. Ironically, Mclean was charged with the very crime he was trying to prevent.

Actor Hugh Mclean said "You know, I'm standing there going, 'Oh God, what is this going to do to my reputation?' You know, 'What are my grandkids going to think? What's my wife going to think?'"
