Police in Boulder, Colorado took their own attack of opportunity when
some internet research revealed that a suspected bank robber would be
attending a Dungeons & Dragons event.
Aaron Klug was being investigated for a bank robbery and a string of
vehicle break-ins when his profile on a registry site for Dungeons &
Dragons Encounters events was discovered. Police set up surveillance
at the event and arrested him without incident. Two other gamers at
the event told reporters that Klug was about to be banned from the
game for disruptive behavior.
Klug's opinions about 4th edition D&D were apparently important to
this story, as Deb Stanley at 7NEWS included the following from Klug's
profile: "I like [Dungeons & Dragons] 4.0 because of the PRO combat
style and it really gives me a chance to Kill [sic] everything." She
also points out that Klug joined the group the same day that the
robbery occurred.
