Screaming crowds left running for their lives after ‘armed’ men storm city in ‘ISIS attack’…but it was all just a sick protest by anti immigrant group
Incredibly cops had approved the stunt but stopped it when the group pretended to execute prisoners
A GROUP of "armed" men caused panic in a city centre by carrying out a fake ISIS attack - causing terrified tourists to think they were fleeing for their lives.
Scenes of terror were sparked in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic and a favourite holiday destination for tourists, yesterday when an anti-immigration group decided to carry out the prank.
They were dressed in army gear with stick on beard and armed with fake guns, although this wasn't known to the panicked crowds who fled as they fired their weapons into the air while shouting "Allahu Akbar" which means "God is Greater" in Arabic.
Several tourists thought the gunfire was real and fled for cover, hiding in the square and running into nearby restaurants - causing panic and hysteria in the busy city centre.
Shockingly cops had given the go ahead for the controversial planned demo, although they brought it to a halt when the fake jihadis pretended to publicly execute prisoners.
The group claims it was trying to show people how the country would look under Muslim rule.
But one tourist told the newspaper: "I'm from Belgium and I'm telling you, it is very dangerous."
Konvicka Martin, leader of the anti-immigration group, said the demonstration was a complete success and dismissed stories of panic among the audience.
He wrote on Facebook: "Until a few Muslims started shouting aggressively and push towards the performers, everything went very peacefully."
The incident comes after terrified British tourists thought they were in the midst of an ISIS terror attack after a resort stunt went wrong.
Holidaymakers in Paphos, Cyprus, looked on in shock as workers in dark clothes burst into a restaurant carrying fake firearms.
They were meant to be dressed as gangsters to promote a new casino.
