Man rams girlfriend off the road to get his PS3 back

• BobYoMeowMeow wrote on 2010-10-17 06:28

  When Darren Suchon used a car as a battering ram against another car driven by his girlfriend, Colleen Frable, it wasn't a simple case of road rage, or love gone awry.
  
  It was a crime of passion: for his PlayStation, that his live-in girlfriend had taken in anger over all the time her unemployed beau was spending on it instead of trying to find a job.
  
  In a last ditch attempt to get him off the couch and onto a productive path, she took the PlayStation to work Friday.
  
  Bad move.
  
  That action set off Suchon, 42, who followed Frable in her Chevy Impala from their Pennsylvania home in another car, also hers, a 1996 gold Porsche sports car. He rear-ended her and forced her off the road in an attempt to get the console back.
  
  The Morning Call's Pamela Lehman reported on the story, which had all the elements of a sim game gone Jerry Springer-style:
  
  Frable looked in her rearview mirror and saw Suchon driving her Porsche while waving his arms and yelling to get her to pull over.
  
  Frable said Suchon nearly hit her car several times and forced her onto the shoulder of the road twice. When she stopped at a light near Route 145, Suchon hit the rear end of her car.
  
  Frable said she pulled into a parking lot in the 4700 block of Lehigh Drive, which is Route 248, and Suchon got out of her car. She said Suchon was yelling at her to give him the PlayStation and trying to force down her driver's-side window, which was open halfway. She said Suchon stopped and left when two men came out of a nearby business.
  
  Lehman reported that Suchon now faces several charges, including simple assault, reckless endangerment, harassment, disorderly conduct, reckless driving and driving with a suspended or revoked license. He was sent to Northampton County Prison under $25,000 bail.
  
  After the chase, it was apparent he was still in a foggy state when it came to realizing how crazy he was for trying to run his girlfriend off the road for his games.
  
  "I just wanted the game, I would never hurt her. I just wanted the game," he told police.

  
  
  Technolog - Girl takes PlayStation, boy runs her off road

  i think what the girl did was right. what the guy did was down right immature and idiotic. i mean YOUR GIRLFRIEND IS WORKING FOR YOU AND YOU CAN JUST SIT THERE AND PLAY GAMES ALL DAY WITHOUT A SINGLE FEELING OF GUILT?? heck if ANYBODY was just working for me and i was living off of them i would feel bad =.=;

  They are both in the wrong.
  The guy completly over-reacted, and the girl took the guys PS3.
  Never, ever, get between a man and his PS3.

  PS3 = Life for a man
  If you wanted something less dangerous hide it with a trail of Cheetoes. At least it'll give him some excersize.

  Anyone that addicted to video games really needs to get a life. She should trash his PS3 and break up with him. Maybe all his other games and game consoles too.

  That would be a poor move on her part.
  
  She should have simply left the loser. Throwing out or destroying people's belongings in the process leads to Jerry Springer ****.

  Actually, I think this happened before. Except with a 360.
  
  The boyfriend ended up murdering his girlfriend, iirc.

  Some kid killed his dad over Halo 3.
  
  
  
  And what that guy did to get his PS3 back was totally worth it.

  The best course of action of the girlfriend was to leave him. Obviously, he placed his PS3 over his girlfriend and her efforts to support him with this act.
  
  I don't understand why people don't get the consequences of making another person go cold turkey. They simply think "taking the source away" is going to solve the problem instantly and all ends well.

  I once saw on the news that some kid's mom died in his room but he was so addicted to an MMORPG that he didn't notice she was dead for 3 days. Like...what?

  "In other news, the family of a PS3 are in mourning today for the poor PS3 was smashed in a car accident earlier today...."

  What she should have done was just left him...anyone that immature has no business being in a relationship.
