 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...

There's a rap song about the iconic heiress and Hollywood socialite  Paris Hilton  and it crept up out of nowhere, literally. Written and performed by  MC Spice The Legend , the song  Paris Hilton  takes the listener into the world of Hollywood where the rapper shows up for a party at a nightclub and Paris Hilton is the DJ. The catchy chorus "living my best life in Hollywood and Paris Hilton is my deejay", caught the ears of  Ice T  manager and  Art Of Rap  tour co-founder  Mickey Bentson , who signed MC Spice to his  PayUp Records  label. Says Benston, "this guy [MC Spice] has something. He knows what the people want to hear and he's bringing back the artistry of Rap music, with a kaleidoscope of song styles. He's not afraid to be an artist." The radio stations that caught on right away, knew they were dealing with another Hiphop artist who would push the envelope, the way  Lauryn Hill, Black Eyed Peas, Bone-Thugs-...
