Aurora police said a 31-year-old Denver man became so angry that the new “Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3” game wasn’t in stock, he threatened to show them some real violence instead.
Best Buy employees told police Lomorin Sar threatened to blow up the store and shoot employees in the parking lot just after the midnight release of the game.
A store manager called 9-1-1, and police pulled over Sar’s Infinity sport-utility vehicle outside the store at 3511 North Salida Court, near Interstate 70 and Tower Road.
Sar was angry because he said he had pre-ordered the game on Monday and his copy was not available at the store.
Police issued Sar a summons alleging misdeameanor disorderly conduct. His only previous record in Colorado was a traffic ticket in 2009, in which he pleaded guilty to driving with an unauthorized license, records show.
“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3,” a military-themed multi-player war game, was released at midnight and has been called “the most anticipated game ever” by its creators.
