A British chap was knifed in front of a line of up to a hundred people waiting to buy Grand Theft Auto IV last night.
The stabbing took place outside the Gamestation store in Croydon. Police said the 23-year-old victim was walking past the crowd when he was stabbed several times by a hooded gent who appeared to be waiting in line.
The suspect is described as being a light skinned black man aged about 21, 6ft 5ins tall, of medium build wearing a light grey hooded top.
"[We] believe there were in the region of 50 to 100 people in the queue,” says a copper. "We are sure many of them will have seen what happened."
Right. But we all know that true fans won’t break the “What goes on in GTA lines, stays in GTA lines” code, so I declare this case shall go UNSOLVED!
Grand Theft Auto IV went on sale at midnight and is expected to break records for the fastest-selling game of all time.
