Bullet-Proof Xbox Wows Police

Posted by simoniker on from the click-click-boom dept.

DocUi writes "The Baltimore Sun is reporting about how a man, upset with his roommates playing videogames late at night, decided to take it out on their Xbox using a gun. He stormed into their living room and fired a round into the offending game console. However, 'The 9mm gunshot did not penetrate the system and did not injure anyone at the scene, police said', although it 'disabled' the machine."
