Passion for Call of Duty can it sometimes lead to some risky act? It would seem so, according to what happened to Clint Butler, 36, sentenced to 17 years in prison for multiple crimes, including robbery and crimes involving firearms. Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War thus marked the end of the prisoner's escape. Butler, whose sentence was supposed to end in 2024, managed to escape from the prison of HMP Spring Hill, in Buckinghamshire, last November, going into hiding and becoming a wanted man.
To "betray" it was the famous shooter he tried to buy. In January, in the center of Birmingham, police officers Mark Owen e Allison Brown they recognized him while, in the company of a friend, he had decided to abandon caution and come out into the open during the lockdown for the ongoing health emergency. Butler, realizing that he had been identified, tried to attack the two officers, which soon immobilized him. When asked what they were doing in the city, the fugitive's friend replied that the two were there to take the new Call of Duty title.
Butler, immediately back behind bars, received a sentence increase of 13 months for evasion, and others 6 months for assault on a public official. Captain Nick Rowie could not help calling Butler's choice to risk capture for a video game "idiot", then declaring:
Our officers did a great job, acting instinctively when they noticed something was wrong and confronting the two men.
The situation quickly escalated, but both agents showed the excellent effects of their training by restraining Butler, immobilizing him and handcuffing him while calling for help from nearby officers.
Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War, the branded chapter Activision purchased by the boy on this occasion, it is available for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X / S.
