9-year-old stabbed over Tony Hawk Ride

Anthony Maldonado was a nine year old boy who loved the PlayStation. On Christmas, he received his very own PlayStation and spent the whole night playing Tony Hawk Ride. It would be on the same night that he would be stabbed to death over the game.

The suspect: one Alejandro Morales. a 25 year old resident of New York City. According to the report, the boy was still playing his PlayStation at around 3AM when two of his relatives went out to buy some snacks. The police assumes that this is when the argument started between the boy and the suspect, and that a struggle might have occurred. This was gleaned from the multiple stabs and bruises found on the boy's body.

The victim even made it to the doorway of his uncle's bedroom, where he eventually collapsed. He was then rushed to St. Lukes Roosevelt Hospital, where he passed away from his injuries within the hour.

Our condolences to the Maldonado family. It truly is a tragic way to start the new year.

Some of you are confused because Mabie didn't report properly:

"This is when Police believe an argument over the game may have ensued."

That's where it came from. Maybe the two relatives left while the boy and his asshole murderer were playing together???

Not enough info...

Killing someone over a game is one thing, but killing someone over a game as sh*tty as TH Ride...

The game was so F'ing bad so he stabbed himself.

I'm perplexed as to what the relationship was between the murderer and the rest of the adults though.

Also why the guy didn't phone a fncking ambulance for the kid, surely at some point he would have went "geez I just stabbed a 9 year old, this won't work out too good for me if he dies".

# WTF!?!?!?!?! — ISOHaven 2010-01-05 20:38

The guy just stabbed a kid and you expect logic to come out of him? O_o

# Erm... — Squintin 2010-01-06 18:20

What had happened was that the guy was tired of watching the kid fail at TH Ride for so many hours, and he wanted to play Uncharted 2. All the kid could do on that jank board was manuals, and like, half an ollie... and the guy got so pissed he killed him. See what you did Tony Hawk? You killed this kid cause of your nonsensical game.
