A gamer suffered consequences of saying that he “killed 2 people” to the 911 emergency service in US. He got surrounded by cops who pointed guns at him over his shocking admittance and was left shaking for hours after the ordeal ended. The cops who were rushed to the scene had no idea that the gamer had actually butt dialed 911 and had shouted that he “killed 2 people” when he was playing Rainbow Six Siege, an online tactical shooter video game.

As per security footage shared on Twitter, the gamer named ‘Elijah’ mistakenly butt-dialed 911 when he was playing the popular shooter game Rainbow Six Siege with his friend during an Xbox party. As gamers often do, Elijah had shouted out “I killed 2 people”, not knowing that he had dialed 911 by mistake and his words were being taken very, very seriously.

Assuming it to be a case of double homicide, a team of cops rushed to Elijah’s home in barely two minutes and pointed a gun at him. A shaken to the core Elijah explained that he was on “the game” and further said that he was all alone at his home.

Elijah’s friend took to Twitter and mentioned that he was shaking for the next four hours over a gun pointed at him.
