In today’s world, many elderly people live alone. Their families generally check on them on a regular basis. Sometimes those checks have interesting results.

On Thursday, Townhall reported:

When West Lake, Ohio police got a call for a welfare check on a 91-year-old grandmother, they feared the worst. Both the family and the authorities tried to call the woman but were unable to reach her. The woman was part of the city’s ‘Are You Okay?’ program, where participants agree to get a daily welfare check call, and she wasn’t answering those, either.

Police showed up at her house to find her garage partially open and her car in the garage. When they entered the home, however, they found a plot twist they did not expect.

That unnamed grandma was alive and well, but so deeply engrossed in beating her personal record on a video game that she was simply ignoring all attempts to reach her.

News 5 Cleveland shared some of the police bodycam footage of the welfare check.
