Saturday brought news of the first robbery of a PlayStation 4; today brings news of the first killing associated with one. Police in Orlando, Fla. say two men were shot, one fatally, in the aftermath of a PS4 sale gone wrong Sunday afternoon.P

Authorities say Emmanuel Johnson, 25, had agreed to meet an unidentified 23-year-old man outside Orlando police HQ at 4:30 p.m. to buy the console from him. The meeting location was changed at the last minute, and that's where the shooting occurred.P

Johnson ended up shot dead. The unnamed 23-year-old was also hospitalized with gunshot wounds. Investigators don't believe anyone else was involved in the transaction or the shooting, a spokesman said.1P

That's why I will never agree to meet someone unless it's in a very public place. Things like this aren't worth losing your life over. If they don't agree to meet somewhere publicly to do the exchange then just don't do it. Not to mention the infamous saying, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
