An Italian teenager has been hospitalized with serious injuries from jumping from window after his father smashed his PlayStation, local media reported.

The accident took place on Saturday, the ANSA news agency said, quoting local newspapers in Bergamo, a town 50 kilometers north-east of Milan.

The 13-year-old boy was said to have walked out on the balcony of his family's flat and to have jumped from a height of 10 meters following a confrontation with his father over his poor school grades.

The father reportedly broke his PlayStation because he was angry at the boy for spending too much time playing video games. Read more Original Post
