 Nashua, NH — A man playing Pokémon Go in search of virtual creatures in Nashua Thursday stumbled across a dead body floating in a brook, police said.
The grisly discovery was made in Salmon Brook at Rotary Park in downtown Nashua. That area has a "Pokestop" where players congregate.
The man called police at about 2 p.m.
"Apparently the person ... was playing this Pokémon game, which led him to an obscure spot," Nashua police Lt. Robert Giggi told reporters. "That's how he came across the victim."
The victim was an adult man, Giggi said. Police were working to identify him. An autopsy was scheduled for Friday.
Pokémon Go is a wildly popular augmented reality game that has players search the physical world to capture virtual creatures. It has quickly become the most popular video game on the planet, reportedly exceeding 8 million downloads and counting since its release last week.
Coupled with the frenzy are concerns about safety. The game is essentially a real-world scavenger hunt, with "Pokéstops" and "gyms" at landmarks like libraries, parks and police stations.
Robberies have been reported, and a teenager stumbled across a dead body in Wyoming while playing the game.

FOX NEWS HOST REFUSES TO BOARD PLANE WITH BLACK FEMALE PILOT

By Anonymous -
conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter has lost her mind! She refused to stay on board a Miami to New York flight after learning the pilot was a Black woman. According to witnesses, Coulter was concerned the experienced, decorated pilot may have gained her position as a result of affirmative action and wasn’t fully qualified to fly. The incident began when Coulter boarded the American Airlines flight and took up her first class seat. After a trip to the bathroom, she noticed the pilot was a black woman and became immediately distraught. According to passengers, at that point Coulter stood at the front of the cabin and began screaming her concerns to the entire flight as they finished boarding. “Aw come on people, a black woman flying a plane? You know she got that job through affirmative action. Am I the only one worried about this? I mean hello? Our lives are at stake here…” The confused passengers weren’t sure what to make of Coulter’s outburst, and rema...

"You have to understand, Doc. It doesn't matter. I don't care. You have to make me care. My niece has to make me care. I'm starting to learn how to care again. I don't even know what that is, man. I don't even care about me. I've never lived. I've never been here." Randy then said to the visiting doctor "It seems like my whole family is talented and smart. But still we -- I'm just go out and take that (clinic treatment). I keep trying to figure out -- I...

by Cashawna "Cash" Shakir Tina Turner's career spans more than five decades and the Grammy-award-winning Soul music superstar has won the heart of one Tempest Walker of New York who has decided to plan a 3-hour tribute dedicated to Ms. Turner's music. In an interview with BlackBerry Radio, Tempest explained her reason for producing the event in honor of the icon: "It was a small portrait of a woman on my grandfather's dresser that I used to walk past all the time. I probably walked past that photo about 15 years with no knowledge of who this woman was in the portrait." "Many months after my grandfather passed away, I went home to Atlanta to show my grandmother and my family what it was drumming up and the idea that I had [for the Be Tina tribute], she walked me over to the portrait and asked me if I knew who that was. I took a closer look, I could tell that was Tina Turner. To me, that was a sign from that my grandfather approving what I was...
