Video Game Inspires Teen Crime Spree

By David Badertscher, PLL

ADVERTISEMENTS

Source: Crime & Justice News

"Long Island teenagers who went on a video-game-

inspired late-night crime spree were arraigned

yesterday after police say they mugged a man outside

a supermarket and menaced motorists with a

baseball bat, a crowbar, and a broomstick, Newsday

reports. The teens told detectives they were imitating

the Grand Theft Auto video game series, where

players steal cars, beat up other characters and score

points for committing crimes. Police have identified at

least three victims.

'They decide that they're going to go do some street

robberies, emulating the popular fictional character

Niko Bellic,' said Nassau Detective Raymond Coté,

referring to a star of Grand Theft Auto IV: Liberty City."
