The Western Slope's very own Grinch almost ruined Christmas for some would be gamers. Thankfully, due to quick thinking and no regard  for personal injury, the thief was stopped. Unfortunately the case goes cold from there.

A North Ave. Walmart employee was attacked by a person trying to get a five-finger discount on a pair of PlayStations. The employee was hit in the junk with one of the PlayStations on Friday December 21, 2012 according to Grand Junction Police.

The suspect dropped the PlayStations as well as his Yankees hat before taking off in a white Ford Expedition. Perhaps some pre-apocalyptic looting?
