Video Dumb Crook: Gamer's 'I Have Killed Them All' Call Leads to Arrest


DELHI, Louisiana - A call mistakenly made by a victorious video gamer led to his arrest on an outstanding warrant.
Authorities arrested Thomas Ballard, 29, of Delhi, early Monday after a woman reported receiving a late-night call from someone saying, "I have killed them all."
Ballard's number showed up on the woman's caller ID; he'd called by mistake, meaning instead to get a buddy to talk-up his success in an Xbox game, said Sgt. Julie Lewis, a spokeswoman for the Louisiana State Police. In the process of identifying Ballard, they found that he had a 5-year-old warrant out of Baton Rouge.
