Driver Playing Pokemon Go Hits Parked Police Car, His Reaction Is Priceless

While people getting robbed in alleyways can say they were victims of scams, this guy has only himself to blame.

A body-worn officer camera shows the immediate aftermath of a driver accidently hitting a police car while playing Pokemon Go. Baltimore Police says the incident happened around 3:30 AM in the 2900 block of Eastern Avenue.

The camera was only activated by the policeman after the collision. However, we probably wouldn't have seen anything dramatic anyway. The parked cruiser was empty, and nobody got hurt, but the kid will have a lot of explaining to do.

From the video footage, it looks like the car is an older model Toyota RAV4 and is occupied by several teens. Could all of them be looking for Charizard in that alley?

"You guys OK?" an officer asks passengers of the Toyota. They appear to be so, but the reaction of the driver is priceless: "That's what I get for playing this dumb a— game."

Well, at least you learned something, young sir. He fully admitted to playing the game while driving so there might be some serious charges ahead. Considering Pokemon Go is the most popular mobile app at the moment, we wouldn't be surprised if the police try to set an example.

"This could have easily been somebody crossing the street and struck by the vehicle. There could have been somebody inside that vehicle, but fortunately, there wasn't," said T.J. Smith, Chief of Media Relations for Baltimore police.

This is hardly an isolated incident. In Pittsburgh, a girl was struck by a car while crossing the street, while in Florida, a homeowner opened fire at two trespassers who were playing. Game-related thefts have also intensified.
