Not surprisingly, playing Pokemon Go while driving is a poor idea…
That was demonstrated early Monday in Southeast Baltimore.
Three police officers were standing outside their patrol car, parked nearby Patterson Park. Around 3:30 a.m., according to body camera footage, a Toyota RAV4 moving down the street side-swiped the parked police car.
Officers leaped aside, then went to check on the folks driving. The side of the RAV4 that hit the police car appeared damaged. “You guys okay?” one officer asked.
A young man stepped out of the driver’s seat as the other passengers stayed inside. He lifted his phone up to show the telltale Pokemon Go app. “That’s what I get for playing this dumb a– game,” the driver said, shaking his head.
