Florida Man Blames Theft on “Video Game Addiction”

Pasco County, FL - A man in Port Richey was arrested for stealing an Xbox recently and told the Pasco County Sheriff's Office that it was due to his "Videogame addiction."

Gary Rodriguez, 22, went to meet with someone on Saturday who was selling an Xbox on the Facebook marketplace, and when the seller showed up, Rodriguez took the game console and ran off.

Deputies, however, found him nearby and were able to arrest him and found the Xbox in his backpack, along with a knife, which Rodriguez says was for protection.
