Robert Bowling chases robbers from Robotski office
An on-site security video captures the dramatic encounter in its entirety. In a matter of seconds, the office's front doors were smashed in, and the burglars entered. Upon seeing Bowling leap toward them, the robbers then beat a hasty retreat. "Unfortunately for them, I work late," Bowling quipped.
The robbery marks the second time police have visited the Robotoki offices in the last year, as LAPD officers stormed the building in 2013 after a designer accidentally tripped its silent alarm system. Bowling, again the sole employee remaining in the building at the time, was taken into temporary custody while officers engaged in a brief standoff with a window-facing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 statue.
While Bowling can apparently get away with these kind of superheroics unscathed, foiling robberies on your own is inadvisable, even if you've played thousands of hours of Call of Duty and have devised a series of burglar-snaring traps, à la Home Alone. Sometimes, though, the element of surprise is enough to save the day.

Halo4Dreams chased seems a bit exaggerated more like walked down the stairs to see what was goin on lol
Pretty much, lol. I wonder why those dudes didn't fight or anything o.0
I know right, anyone could have taken him.

He was up late playing some COD 4, just trying to prestige, and these guys busted in, trying to get him to join a modded lobby and return him to Level 1 First prestige.
Robert doesn't play modded lobbies.
He's the guy that shows up to a body building contest all natural. No steroids for bowling.

That's a pretty big failure by the guys that tried to rob the Robotoki office though, I think they thought nobody was there. lmao.
