Man beats up kid for Gear of War

While it’s normally hardware launches that prompt violence and silliness, it would seem that recently reviewed title Gears of War reached such a level of hype that some customers were actually prepared to use their fists to secure themselves a copy.

According to reports currently floating around the internet, a 15-year-old boy was attacked and actually put into hospital by a 36-year-old man who kicked off in a queue outside a branch of Gamestop in Detroit.

Apparently, say reports, the argument developed after store clerks informed the crowd that stocks were running out, at which point the 36-year-old customer attempted to cut in line and when challenged swore at and repeatedly punched the 15-year-old who was to receive the last copy of the game.

Naturally the police were called and the man was arrested for aggravated assault and is currently awaiting arraignment at a local correctional facility.

The kid on the other hand was so badly beaten that he had to go to hospital for treatment to wounds on his face, head and neck. The real bummer though is he doesn’t even have his rightful copy of Gears of War to play as he mends either – this is said to be currently held by police as evidence.

It's Detroit. People have been killed for less.

i dont see what the big deal is, i beat the shit out of 15 year olds at least once a day. They walk past me, the get the uppercut from hell.

GET THE FUCK OVER IT

The police are probably doing what they do to all evidence they take...............smoking it.

Yeah, get him, Dad!!!


I mean, er, how terrible....

Is anyone else picturing a room full of cops smoking the reefer fighting over the controller?

You gotta be something else to form a fist and punch a kid half your age in the face over a videogame.

Or maybe the kid deserved it.

I wasn't there.

Damn funny, though. Hope they throw the book at him.

When I was like 6 I thought they literally threw a book at the criminal

...Me too.

Criminal: OW! what the fuck!?

Judge: You know the penalty for all crimes.......you are free to go.

Judge: Where is the evidence?

Officer: Well, you see, we were "examining" it over at Sgt. Smith's house, and think we left it there after the 9-11 call last night..."

I believe Bush has a similar mindset.

LOL RDD got his ass kicked
