This is an interesting article.
The gist of it is that this guy was talking on the phone with his co-worker (who was at work) and suddenly started shouting, "There's a bomb in the building! Everyone needs to get out!"
So his co-worker evacuated everyone as they thought it was a bomb threat. Turns out that the guy says he was just giving his kid advice on what to do for a particular mission in one of the Grand Theft Auto games.
As the Gamespot article points out, "the Union article raises more questions than it answers--Did Jones identify himself when he made the call? If so, why would Police need to trace the call? Didn't his coworker recognize his voice? Did he have a beef with his work? Why was he helping a child play the M-rated GTA?--the outcome of the incident is clear. Jones is currently in jail on a $5,003 bond, and will face up to 15 years in jail if convicted."
Sucks to be him.
