In another bizarre incident, a young man was the stabbing victim of a fellow player that became enraged when his in-game character was killed. The Straits Times reports that 21 year-old Tan Thiam Soon stabbed a fellow gamer in a gaming center in Tampines, Singapore after 16 year-old Ng Qiyong admitted to Tan that he was the one who killed his in-game character. After an altercation, Tan stabbed the young Qiyong who suffered a wound that required stitching. Tan Thiam Soon was subsequently sentenced to 6 years and 6 cane lashings
