Nashua Patch reports that a man searching for virtual Pokemon came across a deceased man floating in Salmon Brook at Rotary Park in downtown Nashua near a virtual "Pokestop." The body was discovered behind the Holocaust Memorial Thursday around 2 p.m.
An autopsy on the unidentified man is scheduled for Friday.
Pokemon GO has quickly become a major hit with players searching for virtual Pokemon in a real-world scavenger hunt. The craze has lead to accidents and even robbery as thousands of players wander the streets looking for the imaginary monsters.
