Finally--- A shooting you can blame on Video Games.

Well---technically it was a video game console.

FRESNO, Calif. — Police arrested college student Tuesday suspected of opening fire at an apartment during a dispute over a video game console, killing one man and wounding two others.

Jonquel Brooks, 19, was taken into custody after a series of intense phone negotiations with police, his parents and an attorney, Fresno Police Chief Jerry Dyer said.

Police said the shooting across a street from the California State University, Fresno, stadium broke out during a confrontation with four men over a Playstation game console late Monday.
