Mobile games are great; they allow people to game pretty much everywhere. From gaming during the daily commute to gaming while waiting for the bus, mobile games can enrich people's daily lives. Sadly, for one man in China the joys of playing mobile games had lead to an undeserved beating.
According to China's GuangMing Daily, a young man was beaten in Jilin, the capital city of Shandong province for playing on his phone while riding the bus.
The young man, who is unnamed, was casually minding his own business playing on his mobile phone. He got on the number 45 bus and continued to play his game. According to the bus driver, Mr. Liu, after about short period of time there was a loud commotion on the bus. "I turned around to see what was going on and then I saw a young man being roughed up by a another man and young lady standing to the side," said Liu.
The bus driver stopped the bus and proceeded to find out what was going on. The young lady in question told the bus driver that the young man had been taking pictures of her with his smartphone ever since he got on the bus. The young woman had called the young man a pervert and another bus rider took to her aid and started to beat on the young man.
"There are still seats in the back and he's standing so close to me," said the young woman. "His phone kept going 'click, click, click', he's a pervert".
Still being roughed up by the other bus rider the young man asserted his innocence claiming he was too busy with his game to take pictures of the girl.
"I was into my game," said the young man. "I didn't even notice that seats had opened up."
The young man was able to prove his innocence by showing his phone to the bus driver and the young woman and proving that there were no photos of the girl. He even showed that the same clicking sounds came from the mobile game he was playing. Sadly, he was beaten before he could prove his innocence.
