Grand Theft Auto hace una buena accion...

Sure we can talk about why an 11 year old kid is play Grand Theft Auto, but that’s not the story. It just shows you that kids can also pick up heroic. I bet CNN or Fox won’t report this…I just emailed both of them and said for every negative story about GTA, lets do a positive one…Time to wait and see. Side note the story’s writer Craig Wieczorkiewicz from MyWebTimes was called to verify the details.

Many disparage the value of video games and their effect on today’s youths.

Karen Norris, of Streator, will say no such thing. Not after her quick-witted 11-year-old daughter, Audrey Plique, sprung to the rescue of their family because a popular video game showed a potential danger of a vehicle rollover.

“She just knew, from playing ‘Grand Theft Auto.’ She saw on there that when a car rolls over, it can blow up. She knew that could happen to us,” Norris said.

About 9 p.m. Aug. 27, the family of five was en route to visit relatives in Diamond when Karen’s husband, Robert Norris Jr., felt lightheaded while driving on Route 113 about one-half mile east of Coal City. Their 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee drifted off the road while moving 55 to 60 mph, struck a guardrail and flipped four times before coming to rest on its side in the ditch. The roof of the vehicle caved in and the back window broke out.


“It was a pretty scary experience,” said Audrey, a fifth-grade student at Oakland Park School.

Both parents lost their glasses and were dazed in the dark night. The three children — Audrey, her 9-year-old sister, April Smith, and her 7-year-old brother, Robbie Norris III — were wearing seatbelts, as were their parents. April was hanging upside down and Robbie was pinned down.

“I was really scared. I didn’t know what to do,” Audrey said. “But I knew I had to help.”

She realized the back window had broken and was able to climb over the spare tire to get out. She then called for her mother to reach out her hand and Audrey helped pull her out the back window. She proceeded to help get the rest of family out of the vehicle. Audrey also tugged on her father’s bloody arm to lead him to the road, where they flagged down a passing vehicle to get somebody to call 911.

“She showed the kind of bravery and courage you don’t expect from an 11-year-old,” Norris said. “She stayed composed. She sounded upset, but she knew the things she had to get done to help her parents and her siblings.”

Robert Norris Jr. was hurt the worst, suffering numerous cuts and bruises after slamming into the steering wheel several times without the air bag activating. Everyone else in the vehicle also suffered minor cuts and bruises, but were treated at Morris Hospital and released, Norris said.

“My mom said that because of me, her babies are safe,” Audrey said. “When I heard her say that, I was really relieved.”

Si bien hemos visto un sinnúmero de historia en relación con los niños utilizando Grand Theft Auto como su inspiración para hacer mal, es extremadamente raro que vemos noticias sobre GTA ser citado como una causa para el bien. Sucedió en 27 de Agosto alrededor de 9 p.m., Norris como la familia de cinco personas se dirigía a Diamante, Illinois para visitar a sus parientes. Sus 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee swerved fuera de la carretera, alcanzando una protectora y flipping cuatro veces antes de llegar a una parada, espeleología en el techo y rompiendo la ventana de atrás. Con su madre colgando boca abajo y su padre puestas contra el volante, de 11 años, Audrey Plique subió a la parte de atrás de la ventana y ayudó a sus padres y dos hermanos menores escapar del coche. La motivación por su acto heroico, de acuerdo a su madre Karen Norris?

"Ella sólo sabía, de juego 'Grand Theft Auto'. Vio allí que, cuando un coche más rollos, que puede volar. Ella sabía que podría suceder a nosotros "
Yo sé, yo tenía que asegurarse de que la historia era verdad y, yendo tan lejos como para llamar a la historia del escritor, Craig Wieczorkiewicz, para verificar los detalles. "Es increíble el tipo de información que sale cuando usted formular las preguntas correctas", ofreció, después de haber comentado sobre la rareza de esas historias.

Así que sí, el Grand Theft Auto serie puede fácilmente convertirse en el chivo expiatorio para cualquier número de crímenes, pero también puede inspirar heroísmo en el corazón de una niña preadolescente con una idea poco realista de la física del automóvil. Por supuesto, esto se le descuenta como un monstruo de ocurrencia de quienes eligen a creer juegos violentos causa violenta los niños, pero para nosotros la historia puede servir como un ejemplo de la enseñanza de los juegos de vídeo nos ayuda, si las cosas relativamente inexacta.
