50 Shades of Grey director Sam Taylor-Johnson keeps a machine gun by her desk?! The director’s London home was raided by police early Friday morning after a passer-by noticed the M-16 machine gun in her studio space. See more below!
Police spoke to E! News about the incident and honestly it all seems pretty harmless. Here’s what was reported.
“Police were called at 23:40 hours on Thursday 28 by a member of the public reporting they had seen from the street what they thought was a firearm sitting on a desk by the window of property.”
“Local officers and officers from Metropolitan police attended. The owner was not home at the time, a key holder was contacted and let police in the property. It was confirmed the firearm was a deactivated M16 rifle. No arrests were made.”
Taylor-Johnson’s rep also made a similar statement reassuring that this rifle was apart of an art project given to the director by the international charity Peace One Day entitled “Peace One Day M-16.” No harm done!
