<\/a>Tyler Matthew Schnapp – Crime doesn’t pay<\/p><\/div>\n
Have any of you gone to extreme measures to get the console or gaming PC you want? Let us know in the comments and forum.<\/p>\n
A 19-year-old boy from Colorado, USA, was arrested\u00a0hours after buying a gaming system from his local Wal-Mart. The reason: he\u00a0paid for the console with money he had stolen from a bank earlier that week.<\/p>\n
Tyler Matthew Schnapp was “down on his luck” and unemployed when he walked into a Wells Fargo Bank on 14 May 2014 carrying a black BB gun and a handwritten note explaining that he was there to rob the financial institution.<\/p>\n
After handing the note over to a teller and showing his faux-lethal weapon,\u00a0Schnapp made off with $1,300 (\u00b1R13,500).<\/p>\n
Unfortunately for the amateur bank robber, he took his plunder to a local Wal-Mart later that week and bought himself a gaming console. He was identified by police at a nearby roadblock soon afterwards, and was arrested on the spot.<\/p>\n
Which console does our budding criminal prefer? We don’t know – news publications tend to leave out important details like whether he bought an Xbox One or a PlayStation 4, and focus on “what charges he will face” and other useless information.<\/p>\n
