Fake ax used by Wash. teens to "prank" people, police say

(CBS/AP) VANCOUVER, Wash. - Police in Vancouver, Wash., arrested two 18-year-old men accused of pretending to attack each other with a fake ax and then using it to threaten passers-by while videotaping their reactions.

Police spokeswoman Kim Kapp says officers responded to a gas station Wednesday after getting a report from a couple that a man in motorcycle gear wielded an ax at them after attacking someone with the weapon. A similar report had come in the night before

The suspects allegedly told investigators they were "pranking" people with what police describe as a realistic-looking fake ax.

According to CBS affiliate KIRO, no injuries were reported.

The men - Pavel Krivov and Petru Tomcac - were arrested for assault and booked into the Clark County Jail.
