More Scooby Snacks, please: GameStop robbery under investigation

Zoinks, Scoob! This looks like a job worth more than a box of Scooby Snacks! A few days ago, we reported that robbers had stolen some PS3 and 360 units in a GameStop store on Laguna Boulevard in Elk Grove. However, today, a little fat yellow bird whispered to our ears a curious twist in the story.

Investigators have reason to suspect that the robbery was a fake. The two 19-year-old employees, Tauryn Robert Hodge and Gerald Anthony Keys, were arrested Tuesday on charges of suspected embezzlement, burglary and conspiracy.

The story goes that Hodge called to alert the police of the robbery, but now they actually think that there’s more to it. While Hodge is getting additional charge of filing a false police report, the investigators are keeping mum on how they got whiff of the conspiracy. They just said that their detectives received information that wasn’t consistent with the robbery story of Hodge.

Whatever the case, the consoles under question are still at large and, if we’d assume, probably already sold on eBay. Well, you never know, right? Foiled! Thanks to those pesky little kids… and that stupid dog, too!
