Double robbery of trucks transporting 'Modern Warfare 3' games
Two trucks in charge of the delivery of Call of Duty : Modern Warfare 3, the latest episode of the successful Activision franchise released this Tuesday, have been held up in the parisian region during the weekend, according to Le Parisien (newspaper). The two vehicles have been robbed Saturday early morning, after they left the Micromania distribution platforms in Bonneuil.
A first truck was robbed Saturday at 7.30am in Créteil, by several individuals who first crashed into the vehicle with a car, then attacked the drivers with tear-gases. One hour later, a second truck has been attacked in Mantes-la-Jolie. Blocked by a car, the truck drivers had to surrender their vehicle under the threat of a firearm.
Each truck contained several thousands of copies of the game, which should be one of the best sellers of the end of the year. The total loot is estimated at 780 000 euros.
