Police in Nan'an, Fujian province, have arrested a man who robbed two taxi drivers at gunpoint. It was a toy gun, police say.

Last month, Yang, 20, robbed a taxi driver of about 100 yuan ($14.6) and a cell phone. And just days later, he robbed another taxi driver of 20 yuan.

Police nabbed Yang in an Internet caf and found he had purchased the toy gun from a flea market for 50 yuan.
