3 times were video games have influenced someone

• 1.An eight-year-old boy intentionally shot and killed his grandmother minutes after playing the violent video game Grand Theft Auto IV, US authorities said. The town of Slaughter, Louisiana, is in shock after the child was able to access the family's gun and shoot the 90-year-old in the head while she was watching television. The woman, who was helping to look after the boy, was pronounced dead at the scene at the Country Breeze Mobile Home Park. Sheriff's deputies have not revealed a motive but they pointed out the child was playing the video game before the fatal shooting.

• 2.Officers rushed to the home of Jeffrey Logan, a man who would have hypothetically killed 50 people after spending all night playing Grand Theft Auto V. This is just proof that video games are more dangerous than guns.

• 3. A violent teenager who killed a Bolton man after punching him with force in the face then went to a friend’s house to play video game was convicted of murder.
