360 ransom story

[Skeithex]

A Kingsport, Tennessee man was kidnapped, beaten and ultimately ransomed for an Xbox 360 in a bizarre story that will likely make you appreciate your in-laws and that the valuation of your freedom is not "one video game console."

According to a police report, Allen Begley was kidnapped by his father-in-law, who accused him of thievery. Begley says his kidnapper, Joshua Seal, also his employer, demanded payment from his son-in-law, ultimately attempting to beat it out of him. Begley turned to his mother-in-law, who in turn went to a neighbor, who coughed up an Xbox 360 "valued at $400 to $500."

Yeah, that's an expensive Xbox.

Begley was finally released by Seal, but only after the exchange of man for video game console. Not surprisingly, Seal and an accomplice have been arrested.

Very weird, I wonder if the Xbox 360 was the Halo Reach or Resident Evil version of the console.
