According to a report filed today, a robber recently burst into a London area branch of Blockbuster Video in the greater London suburb of Thornton Heath. He made off with £500 ($996.30) worth of goods--but what he really wanted was a PlayStation 3.
The site This is London Local reports that the perpetrator brandished a handgun at two terrified female employees and demanded that they give him a PlayStation 3 Problem was, the store apparently didn't have any PS3s, so the disappointed thief asked for an Xbox 360 instead.
After taking the console, he helped himself to £60 ($119) from the till and a selection of games from the shelf on his way out. Nobody was hurt in the incident, although there was a delay in the investigation as police ended up in the wrong store due to a "mix-up."
Though it was made public today, the robbery actually took place at around 7 p.m. on April 14. Any witnesses in the area are asked to contact Crimestoppers anonymously at 0800 555111.
