The LAPD almost met its match in a late night encounter with a video game statue last week. Note, I said “almost.” Here is the rest of the story…
Polygon.com reports that the LAPD responded to a tripped duress alarm at Los Angeles-based independent game studio Robotoki. A duress alarm is a panic button that can be pressed to alert the alarm company and/or local law enforcement that a situation such as a robbery or burglary is in progress. They are quite common in commercial and industrial settings, especially in LA, which at one time was the commercial armed robbery capital of the country.

So LAPD responds, guns out, ready to stop a threat and while coming up a staircase at Robotoki, they see what looks like a camouflaged figure wearing a skull balaclava, ballistic hard plate armor, and armed with a M4-style carbine staring back at them.

They literally saw a ghost.
