New game sparks violence

HARTFORD, CONN. -- Two armed thugs tried to rob a line of people waiting for the new PlayStation 3 game system to go on sale early yesterday and shot one man who refused to give up his money, authorities said.

In Sullivan, Ind., a man was in critical condition after surgery for a stab wound after he and a friend tried to rob two men of consoles they waited 36 hours in line to buy, police said.

Countrywide, short supplies of the PS3 and strong demand led to long lines of buyers, some waiting for days outside stores. Once the doors opened yesterday, customers pushed and shoved their way to the shelves in several cities to get at the limited supply. Two people were arrested in Fresno, Calif., after a crowd trampled people in a parking lot.

It was about 3 a.m. when the two gunmen in Putnam, a town of about 9,000 residents in northeast Connecticut, confronted 15 to 20 people standing outside a Wal-Mart store and demanded money, said state police Lieut. Paul Vance.

"One of the patrons resisted. That patron was shot," Vance said.


Vance said the two gunmen fled after shooting Michael Penkala, 21, of Webster, Mass., in the chest and shoulder. Penkala was in stable condition.

About 50 km away, another shopper was beaten and robbed of his PlayStation 3 just minutes after he bought it at a store in Manchester, police said.

The shopper told police five men surrounded and beat him as he left with the new PlayStation.

BLACK SKI MASKS

Elsewhere, two men wearing black ski masks and sunglasses made off with five consoles after holding two employees at gunpoint at an Englewood, Ohio, video game store Thursday night, police said.

A Pennsylvania teenager was also robbed of his new PlayStation by a man who tapped on his car window with a handgun in Allentown, police said.

Pair purchase system, then destroy it 'for the thrill'

TORONTO -- Ben Lovatt and Victor Moukhortov waited in line for two days to buy a new PlayStation 3 only to take it to Dundas Square and smash it to bits with a sledgehammer. "I did it for the thrill and to see people's expression," Moukhortov, a 17-year-old part-time student, said yesterday after the public smashing of the PS3 he bought from the downtown Best Buy. "It was like a social experiment to see people's reaction. It held up pretty well. It took about 15 hits to break it."
