Pokemon Go Players Arrested At Zoo After Jumping Fence Near Tiger's Enclosure

TOLEDO, Ohio (WWJ/AP) - Police say two Pokemon Go players in Ohio have been arrested for criminal trespassing at the Toledo Zoo.

Apparently the two went over a fence near the zoo's tiger enclosure in search of the smartphone game's cartoon monsters. They were spotted on a zoo security camera and were walking through the zoo when they were caught.

Pokemon Go is a location-based augmented reality mobile game millions of people are playing via their smart phones.

Meanwhile, authorities in Southern California say two men who were playing Pokemon Go fell off an ocean bluff. One plunged about 50 feet and the other fell 90 feet to the beach.
