A SWAT team has raided the set of Brad Pitt’s movie ‘World War Z’.

The Special Weapons and Tactics unit was called to a warehouse in Budapest holding props for the horror apocalypse movie where they discovered and seized 85 weapons – including AK-47s and sniper rifles – which all contained live ammunition.

A police spokesperson told gossip website X17 the collection of assault rifles were a “disaster waiting to happen” and claimed an accident could easily have occurred with the loaded weapons.

This is not the only near disaster averted on set, 47-year-old Brad saved an extra from being trampled during a battle scene for the film in Glasgow, Scotland with 700 extras when she fell to the ground.
