Default GTA IV to blame in crimes already!

SAN DIEGO -- A man was jailed Tuesday after allegedly dousing clerks with Mace at a Mira Mesa shop and stealing several video games -- including "Grand Theft Auto IV," which had been on store shelves less than 12 hours.

Dennis Fiel, 27, allegedly entered The Game Stop in the 8100 block of Mira Mesa Boulevard about 10:30 a.m., doused two workers with the caustic chemical spray, grabbed the game cartridges and ran, according to San Diego Police Department Detective Gary Hassen.

The robber fled to the east in a white truck, he said.

About five minutes later, officers aboard a police helicopter spotted a pickup matching the description of the getaway vehicle and tailed the truck as the man drove to a Japanese restaurant on Kearny Villa Road, Hassen said.

Officers arrested Fiel at the eatery, which is owned by his family, a short time later.

Officers recovered the stolen property -- including the fourth installment of the popular "Grand Theft Auto" game, released at midnight -- and returned it to the store, Hassen said.
WTF that' got to be a record.

Besides theres probably worse to come for GTA. I give it a week.

Hell there ready to blame GTA if Iron Man doesnt get a great amount of viewings.

Id watch Iron Man even if I have GTA, because there is something in GTA called the pause or save button.

In london bunch of people waiting in a queue at midnight for the game. two of em got into an argument and one stabbed the other twice in the head. the stab victim managed to get home after being stabbed twice, grab his own knife and started making his way back to the queue to kill the dude who stabbed him. The game hadnt even been released

i just walked into a shop and bought one oof the last copies, wasnt that hard ^^

Heh...hindsight is great but not in cases of bringing a knife to a gunfight

It mentions GTA IV only because of the publicity hate going on; yet, they failed to mention any name of the other "several video games" he stole... I wonder if GTA IV wasn't amongst the titles, would this even have made the news?

It's kind of a dumb idea since it's easier to just not pay her IMO. But I know what you mean.
