Halifax Regional Police is offering safety tips in response to the recent Canadian release of the popular Pokemon Go app.

Here are some tips:

  • Don’t drive or ride your bike, skateboard, etc. while interacting with the app…you can’t do both safely.
  • Pay attention and look where you're going.
  • Play in pairs or as a group to enhance your safety.
  • If you're travelling in an unfamiliar area, make sure you tell someone where you're going.
  • Don’t trespass onto private property.
  • Have fun AND stay safe!
