SWAT Team Busts Counter Strike Player Mid-Game in Elaborate Prank

August 27, 2014 by Stephen Daly

Swatting is getting a little out of hand people.

One Counter Strike Global Offensive player's game was unexpectedly interrupted when a SWAT team burst through the door. 

Kootra, a member of 'The Creatures' and the pro Counter Strike player featured in the video, found that his game became a little bit too real when actual police officers showed up at his house mid-stream. They were apparently called in by an anonymous tipster as part of an illegal prank known as "swatting." 

This isn't the first time something like this has happened and it seems the tactic is becoming an increasingly popular way of turning a game around. 

Maybe the real question is why it's so easy to get a SWAT team sent out on anonymous tip. Anyway, you can watch the video below.
