Today's humorous tale of videogame crime happened in Leonardtown Maryland, where a 17-year-old boy, is accused of trying to hire a hitman to kill his folks, partially because they took away his PlayStation.
According to cops, the kid offered the professional killer his dad's pickup truck in exchange for the double-homicide, but the hitman was actually an undercover police officer. Not to all would-be-hitman-employers: They are always really cops. You can't find a hitman in suburban Maryland.
