A Michigan man was reportedly strangled by his longtime boyfriend on Thursday during an altercation over a video game.
According to WDIV, Docquen Watkins, 31, called 911 claiming that he and Rory Teasley, 28, got into a fight, and Teasley was “sleeping” on the couch. Teasley was pronounced dead at a hospital after responding police officers found him unconscious and not breathing.
Watkins allegedly told Oakland County police that he and Teasley were playing “Overwatch” — a team-based, first-person shooter game — when they got into an argument. Watkins choked his boyfriend to death during the dispute, WDIV reported.
