Game shop robbed by would-be game renter

A Springfield store had a PlayStation 4 and other video games stolen Tuesday night.

The theft, valued at around $500, comes after the owner just bought the Game Cycle store in January. He’s been robbed four times since then.

The owner said a female entered the store at 1300 St. Paris Pike, and was shopping around and asking a lot of questions.

As a store clerk was filling out paperwork for the woman to rent a PlayStation 4, the suspect grabbed everything and ran out.

The woman ran into a waiting vehicle.
