Videogame helps 5 inmates escape custody

August 12, 2010 in News comments 5

While playing Plants Vs. Zombies, a police officer allowed five inmates to just get up and go. The officer never took noticed while playing the game. Who knew this videogame was that good?

In a tale of utter ineptitude, a police officer in Agora, Lapasan in Cagayan de Oro City (in the Philippines) allowed five inmates to escape from custody. The reason? He was so engrossed in his game of Plants vs. Zombies, that he didn't even notice.

      Absolutely, just lay out your strategy right and you can do other things without staring at it. What a noob

    uh-oh, this will be the downfall of the video games... How dare video games let those prisoners escape. I am glad the officer is not to blame, poor fellow, that would have been awful
