Kinect Boxing Leads to House Raid In Sweden

Well video games are no stranger to “causing” violence and domestic assault. Now though Kinect is to blame for a police murder raid.

Police in Sweden reported to an apparent murder scene where a passer-by saw the shadowy figure of a person punching another subject. They alerted the authorities who responded to the call, and raided the house, but were in for a surprise upon breaking open the door.

It was pretty embarrassing when they came in and asked who we were attacking. It was just a computer game.

Inside the home, they didn’t find what they raided the house for. Instead they found five people playing a video game. So crisis averted, and thankfully for them too.

Let that be a lesson to you out there who have Kinect. If you are playing it, open you blinds and let the world see you playing it. Wouldn’t want you to be wrongfully accused for murder.

    Derp.

    Damn. People must be really paranoid out there if they thought someone was being murdered. But hey, at least they are looking out for the community.
