A professional Call of Duty gamer and his family got a whiff of some real first-person shooters this week when a swarm of heavily armed officers descended on their home in Lake Stevens, Washington. Curtis Henke, 20, became the target of a “swatting” hoax on Monday after a caller— using Skype and pretending to be Henke—informed authorities that he shot his dad in the head, stuffed a grenade in his mother’s mouth and was ready to start mowing down cops, according to police.
