Grand Theft video: Teens accused of snatching 23 copies of Grand Theft game

Two teenagers were arrested Tuesday afternoon on suspicion of trying to steal almost $1,400 worth of the new Grand Theft Auto IV video games from a Best Buy store in Oakdale.

The latest game in the notoriously violent series was released on the same day.

Capt. Jack Kettler said police were called to the store at about 4 p.m. Tuesday. A store employee reported seeing two boys walking out of the store with some merchandise.

Police apprehended two teenagers in a nearby parking lot. They said one, a 15-year-old boy, had eight copies of the video game and faces a misdemeanor theft charge. The other, police said, was a 16-year-old boy who had 15 copies of the game and faces a gross misdemeanor charge.
