Rapper Game, formerly The Game, could face prosecution after he invited fans to call him about becoming his new intern but posted the phone number of the LA Sheriff’s Department. Sheriff’s Captain Mike Parker sent the rapper a message via the social networking service saying: “You tweeted [the] phone [number] of [the] LASD Compton Sheriff and said to call for [an] internship when there is none. [Large volumes of calls] are compromising public safety”.

The Sheriff sent several more messages asking Game to delete the tweet containing the phone number The rapper eventually complied, but also posted a new message reading: “Y’all can track a tweet down but can’t solve murders! [Posting the LAPD number] was an accident, but maybe now y’all can actually do [your] job! I speak for the people”.

What a nice guy.
