Teen game aficionado and accused drug dealer Andrew Silva found a way to blend his job and his hobby into one juicy, law-breaking bag of fun.
Socorro (Texas) police say Silva, 16, has set up a rock cocaine business and was trading the crack for electronics, consoles and video games. He was arrested after a customer was tagged for breaking into a home and swiping some consoles and games. She told police she traded the gaming goodies for five rocks of cocaine.
When Silva was arrested he had 52 rocks on him. I wonder if El Paso County Jail lets its inmates play Grand Theft Auto?

Wow, this is the news in New Mexico? This is nothing new and should not be treated as such by "El Defensor" (great name for a paper though). Yes, people can be indignant all they want, but bartering is older than money.
Damn you Crecente, I saw that headline and thought the cops were coming for me.
How much crack can I get for a PS3?
