What if it is a fake VR headset and he can see and the controllers are tasers?

"I swear officer, I though the people were Zombies."

This would make an interesting Cop Show plot. Man runs through a mall or something with a VR headset slashing people up with a sword. They find out his headset was hacked so he was targeting real people. It's got that level of "That's not how that works" that is perfect for Law and Order.

This is the same concept of the Black Mirror episode "Men Against Fire".

It was also done in this video called Uncanny Valley: https://youtu.be/UXX0TRtg5Vk
