CRIME DOESN'T PAY ON BLOGTV!

On Tuesday evening at about 11:30pm EST, a teen on blogTV made a broadcast showing what appeared to be himself cutting his wrists in a suicide attempt. The moderation staff and some very caring blogTV community members entered this boy's room and tried to calm the situation down.

The mods on duty pulled his IP address and contacted the police in the area of the ISP. They were able to reach the state troopers in the location quickly and asked them to please hurry to find this teenage boy who allegedly was attempting suicide.

Troopers responding to the residence, located the 17-year-old male who admitted to creating a hoax on blogTV by putting ketchup on his arms in an attempt to make it look like he had cut his wrists.

The 17 year old explained that he had no intention of hurting himself and that he only did it for a joke.

State Police report that this incident tied up their resources and personnel for a considerable amount of time, while trying to locate what was believed to be a young man attempting to commit suicide.

Troopers consider this young man’s actions to be anything but a joke and plan to pursue criminal charges after consultation with the District Attorneys Office.
