I was running a game of Shadowrun and watching, at the same time, as it happened in front of me.
One of my players was a troll. The team went to a church to talk to a priest, to get info about some sort of cult. The church was well-armed; the team was captured and disarmed, and the cops were called. Their weapons were heaped together and wrapped in shrink-wrap plastic, like those things at airports you can seal your luggage with. Then the whole bundle was shipped off to the police evidence room.
Before the team could be dragged off, however, a lone priest let them free and showed them a secret door down into the underground tunnels that the cult was using. They were going to have to go in and face the enemy unarmed...
