Police called after brothers fight over Grand Theft Auto

Police had to be called to a house after two brothers got into an argument over a computer game.

Officers arrived at the scene in the Whitleigh area of Plymouth last night when a dispute between the adult siblings escalated.

“It appears that there was an argument between two brothers who fell out after playing the computer game Grand Theft Auto.

“Officer dealt with incident at the scene.”
