How playing a video game can lead to one's arrest for cocaine possession:

The Louisiana State Police arrested Thomas Ballard, 29, of Delhi, after a concerned citizen called authorities saying she received a call shortly after midnight saying, ?I have killed them all.?

Ballard?s telephone number was on her caller ID.

When troopers arrived at his house, Ballard reportedly said he had killed the ?bad guys? on his video game and called a friend to share the news. After searching his home to ensure no one had been murdered on the scene, police found a 5-year-old warrant from Baton Rouge for failure to appear on a possession of cocaine charge.
