Would-be Xbox 360 Scalpers are Robbed

December 20, 2005 by David

In Anchorage, two men robbed some people who had purchased Xbox 360’s and were trying to scalp them for a profit.

Some people say “Serves them right!”

They offered to part with two of their Xboxs to folks in line. For $600, said police spokesman Paul Honeman.

Someone who also wanted an Xbox and who apparently saw them trying to sell the consoles outside Best Buy followed them to McDonald’s, Honeman said.

A man who was described as bald and wearing bluejeans and a blue hooded sweatshirt walked up to the van, opened its sliding door and pulled a gun out, police said. The man ordered the teen to open the van’s rear door. Another man, described as having dark curly hair, opened the door and took four of the Xboxs.
