SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. -- A Seminole County woman said she was attacked and held at gunpoint by game thieves Sunday afternoon.Missy Robinson thought she hit the jackpot when she bought the very last Playstation 3 from the Game Stop on State Road 434 in Altamonte Springs. She didn't expect two men to point a gun at her and her brother and snatch the machine from her hands."I was thinking, oh my God is he going to shoot me?" said Robinson.Investigators believe the thieves may have spotted her at the store and then followed her to her Sweetwater Country Club home. Another suspect waited for the gunmen in a maroon Chrysler Lebaron."These people are out to get you, because they can take the games to the corner and sell them quick," said Robinson.Robinson is not the first victim of the Playstation 3 craze in Central Florida.Last month, Channel 9 brought you the story of triplets who were victimized in their apartment parking lot.The brothers camped outside a Wal-Mart for three days to buy the Playstation 3. When they got to their Oviedo apartment, two thieves threatened them in the parking lot and took off with the game system.Investigators in that case were not sure if the thieves followed them home, or just saw them in the parking lot.
