Armed Frenchmen Steal Thousands of Copies of Modern Warfare 3

Posted on Monday, November 7 @ 06:30:32 Eastern by


About 15 kilometers away from Paris, France, two masked men with tear gas and knives raided a truck with 6,000 copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3.

As reported by French news channel TF1, a car crashed into the truck and while the two men left the truck to call phone emergency services, both were sprayed with tear gas by two masked criminals. This allowed them to steal the truck holding thousands of copies of Modern Warfare 3 valued at over €400,000.

No one knows where the copies have gone, but they'll likely be sold underground and, if they're smart, not on eBay under one name.

    If it's worth money it gets stolen. They can make a lot of money off this heist.

    Interesting the weapons criminals use in different countries. The same crime here in the US would probably involve AK's, M4's and at least a Barret.
