Sheriff warns: Stop trespassing to find Pokemon on new app

None

GOOCHLAND- Searching for Pokemon on a popular new smartphone game is not a valid excuse for trespassing.

 

That's the warning from a central Virginia sheriff's office. In a post on its official Facebook page, the Goochland Sheriff's Office links a rise in reports of trespassing and suspicious activity over the weekend to Thursday's release of the popular Pokemon Go game.

 

The "augmented reality" game encourages players to wander in the physical world to find and catch new Pokemon on their screens.
