Police in Sweden raided an apartment filled with teenagers playing an online video game after sounds of gunfire from the game spooked a passerby.
During the group’s weekly meet up to play Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, one of the teenager’s online characters was shot. In an act of desperation to save his dying character, the teenager screamed “help” so that his teammates in the game could assist their fallen friend.

The gunfire sounded so real and the cry for help was so loud that a passerby called police believing someone had actually been shot.
A 10-person police unit arrived at the apartment and forced the group outside, where they explained they were “just playing a game.”

Well that ough to of ratteled a few cages!

... Black Ops 2 gunfire sounds real? Also if someone screams for help from people in the same room as them while playing a game thats just a little sad.

Lol dafuq times a million.


Would be funny if the kids looked back at the door at who came in (the police) and were like: Oh, hey, want to play too?

To be fair, nobody in Sweden knows what a gun sounds like

Better be safe than sorry. The passerby and the police did the right thing even if it was just a false positive.

Doubt it. I hear gun shots all the time near Sundsvall during hunting seasons and i even shoot my firearm in my mother's backyard as i got a hunting license but stopped hunting animals a while ago. It's completely legal as the property is owned / i have permission to shoot there by the one who owns it. Can't say i've ever had police officers pull up and ask questions, might depend on where you're from.

Exactly, we only got around 35 firearms per 100 citizen ;P
Gosh EN, go with the times yo, we'll soon have more guns then the yanks!

Sundsvall of course! ;P

I think there are around 20.000 police officers employed atm. I'd guess most are in Stockholm. Gothenburg isn't bad.

Stockholm needs the police the most, reported crime/crime per 100k citizens(most are things like bicyle theft, shoplifting etc).
