VIOLENT VIDEO GAME SAVED KIDS 4/8/2013
Grenades found in vacant lot in Mandaue
Playing violent video games saved the life of three children in Mandaue City yesterday afternoon.
Police yesterday rushed to barangay Looc to defuse and recover three grenades that were accidently found by three children who were scavenging for scrap in a vacant lot.
Jose Darwin Garciano, 12 admonished his friends and warned them not to touch the grenade as it could detonate and instantly kill them.
"Kabalo ko nga muboto 'to kay kakita ko sa game sa Counter-Strike," Garciano told Cebu Daily News.
(I knew that it will explode as I've seen it in a Counter-Strike game.)
The grenades in the Mandaue City vacant lot were discovered when one of the children, Elmer Rigodo, heard a “crack” when he landed on a plastic biscuit container after doing a cartwheel stunt.
12-year-old Garciano said it was Jerson Salili who opened the plastic jar and took the bronze-colored grenade out.
Not knowing that what he found was an explosive, Salili tried to polish the metal object by rubbing it on the soil.
Garciano immediately admonished his friend and warned him that it could explode.
