(1/3) > >>

Josh:


An 18 year old Starcraft player has been reported as attacking a 15 year old girl. The gamer became angry when his internet connection wouldn't work and picked up a kitchen knife and headed into the street. When there he came into contact with a 15 year old girl who was on her way home from a party and laughing with a friend. He attacked her with the knife but despite several stabs her injuries were not life threatening.

This was in Korea, right? They're crazy about Starcraft.

EDIT: Nope, I guess it was in Sweden...

Deozaan:
I'd also like to just say that just because the guy played Starcraft doesn't mean anything. I can't read Swedish, so I don't know what the original article says, but the article Josh links to doesn't say anything about the man playing Starcraft when his internet connection was lost. It just says he's a Starcraft player who got angry when his internet connection went out.

Might as well have the headline be: 18 year internet user stabs 15 year old after internet connection goes out.

Oh wait, that's not as scary/sensational, so that won't work... ::)

Are you clicking the right link deo? I just clicked it again and the link even says starcraft right in it. The first paragraph makes mention of it as well.
