Pokémon GO: Woman finds dead body while out hunting Pokémon

Country10 today reports that 19 year old Pokémon Go trainer Shayla Wiggins has discovered a dead body while on a quest to catch ’em all.

Wiggins was hunting around the B&K Mobile Home Park and was walking along Wyoming’s Wind River in an attempt to catch some water-type Pokémon. Instead, she stumbled upon a mostly submerged human body.

The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office has issued a press release indicating it is “investigating the death of an adult male… located under the Wyoming Highway 789 Bridge… around 8:40am.”

While gruesome, the Sherriff’s Office believes the death was accidental. The identity of the deceased person has not yet been released.

Be careful out there, trainers.
