Over the course of 24 hours, three UPS employees fell into the temptation of stealing a copy of Rockstar’s Grand Theft Auto IV from warehouse shipment boxes, reports technology site Arstechnica.

Following questioning, the workers caught were subsequently fired. Surprisingly, a company spokesperson said this is not a common occurrence with big-name video game titles at all. GTA IV is a rare case, apparently.

Guess this proves one thing. Stupid people will go to ridiculous lengths to get their grubby hands on GTA IV. Even if it means losing their job.
