TMZ:

Hungarian police raided the set of Brad Pitt’s new movie today — confiscating a massive stash of high-powered guns … including AK-47s and sniper rifles … filled with live ammo.

According to Hungarian authorities, the guns — which were to be used as props in Brad’s new zombie flick “World War Z” — hadn’t been properly disabled, and some even contained live rounds.

Authorities seized 85 weapons in total from a warehouse in Budapest — and called the entire situation “a disaster waiting to happen.” Brad was not present during the raid.

A publicist for the film claims … “We are working with the authorities to resolve the matter and have no further comment at this time.”

TMZ placed calls to several people in Pitt’s camp — including his production company and his manager — so far, no word back.
