KENOSHA, Wisconsin (AP) -- Authorities say a teenager told them a video game about stealing cars inspired an auto theft spree involving about 100 vehicles.

Nineteen-year-old Micah Zoerner of Somers, Wisconsin is charged with numerous counts of theft, burglary and auto theft. He's being held in lieu of a 15-thousand dollar cash bond.

A preliminary hearing is scheduled for November 20th.

He was arrested Friday when officers in the village of Pleasant Prairie spotted him breaking into vehicles parked at a local apartment complex.

When he was arrested, Zoerner had a vehicle that was reported stolen a week earlier from the same complex.

Detectives say he told them he'd been inspired by the video game "Grand Theft Auto."

Two other teens, one 18 and the other 19, were also apprehended but have not yet been charged. [/quote:f7a7a]

What a loser. He's just looking for a way to try to dump his problems on someone or something else.
