Modern Warfare 3 Shipment Stolen by Armed Robbers
It's a warzone just getting to the shops, it seems.
There could be less copies of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 on store shelves tonight than expected - a truck containing around 6000 copies of the game was reportedly stolen by masked thieves in France.
A report by news channel TF1, translated by Eurogamer, states that a car crashed into a truck on 8am Sunday morning some 10km out of Paris. Upon leaving the vehicle to make a report, the drivers were reportedly sprayed with tear gas by two men, who promptly climbed into the truck and made off with €400,000 worth of unspecified video game goods.
Agence France Presse later claims that the cargo was thought to be copies of Modern Warfare 3.

Maybe the Publisher should have some sort of ID link on each disc so they can know which copies were stolen and block them somehow? maybe it will prevent it in the future.
