HARRIS COUNTY, Texas A 19-year-old man who was attempting to sell his Sony PlayStation 5 was allegedly shot by a suspect who may have thought it was a better idea to steal it.

Deputies with the Harris County Sheriffs Office were dispatched to a robbery call in the 8300 block of Gros Ventre lane shortly before 1:30 p.m.

Upon arrival, they found a teen suffering a gunshot to the left side of his body.

The teen was transported to the hospital in stable condition.

A lieutenant at the scene said the teen had listed the video game online, and the suspect pretended to be an interested customer, but pulled a gun once the two met up.

The suspect remains at large. He did not get away with the game, which was found covered in mud at the scene.

The HCSO Violent Crimes Unit is investigating.

It's 2021 and boomers STILL don't know the difference between a game and a console.

Blood on the circuit boards....

Geez when will these idiotic, selfish assholes learn that it's not worth hurting or even killing someone over something so small in the grand scheme of things. If it was for money I could at least get why the bastard would do it, but for a used PS5? Come on. Failed parenting, plain and simple.

Id never do a deal at my house. Go to a public area. Theyd be a lot less hesitant to pull that shit.

Never, ever ever meet up with strangers to sell expensive merch.

I sold a Haslab Sentinel back in Oct and one guy insisted on meeting since we're in the same state (2 hr drive). I told him if he has $900 for a toy he has $40 to have it shipped and it would cost about the same or more in gas. Dude was adamant and getting aggressive so fuck him, sold it to another guy who was happy to pay for shipping.

Dude got a cool scar and story to tell chicks and to keep his PS5.

Person at large got an investigation.
he also gets a huge medical bill and potentially months of recovery since bullets do a huge amount of tissue damage even if it doesn't hit a vital area.

Made the right choice boss. If you're the seller and aren't doing it through a marketplace website or strictly online, you make the rules.

I hope you understand that getting shot doesn't just leave a cool scar, and those types of injuries can affect a person for the rest of their life

I used to do in person sales of sneakers.

This is why you always do it in a mall or something.

Police stations need to allow the front desk lobby area to be used specifically for this sort of thing, as a public service.
It'll keep the sellers from getting robbed, and may even limit the possibility of the buyer getting ripped off.

That's a pretty good idea actually, if not the police station then at least some designated area

Was he a scalper or was he just selling his own used PS5?
