A boy reportedly got both a video game and a powerful street drug from a Louisiana GameStop.
A Louisiana boy and his family were shocked this week when they say discovered a baggie of drugs inside a video game.
The 11-year-old boy in Lake Charles purchased a game from a GameStop location Wednesday. He got it home and inside he found a baggie of what turned out to be meth.
