POLICE CALLED TO TOKYO STORE AFTER GAMERS GO MAD
Police were reportedly called to a Japanese store on Saturday, after gamers desperately tried to grab a PS5.
The staff at Yodobashi Camera, in Tokyo, used a random lottery system in a bid to deter scalpers – but when handing out the few hundred tickets, the excited crowd surged forward.
The chaos continued despite a spike in Tokyo’s coronavirus cases and the current state of emergency, and police arrived within 10 minutes.
The sale was eventually cancelled as a result.
Dave Gibson, who was there at the time, tweeted: “They cancelled the sale due to people being insane!! Pushed so hard even the cash registers and staff went backwards. I’ve never seen that kind of insanity in Japan before…”
