Pokémon GO: Player is stabbed in the park – perpetrators are on the run

That happened: In the early hours of Saturday, September 17, a Pokémon GO player was attacked and stabbed by two unidentified men in a park. According to reports from KSAT, police in San Antonio, Texas, received a call at 1:45 am Friday night reporting the incident.

The victim was believed to have flown out on a late-night Pokémon GO adventure to a park near his apartment complex. After some time, two unknown men approached him and stabbed the Pokémon GO player’s upper body several times. The two suspects then fled on foot.

Victims in the hospital: After the incident, the Pokémon GO player was able to return to his apartment and call for help there. The victim was taken to San Antonio Military Medical Center in critical condition. In the meantime, however, his state of health has stabilized again.

Motive of fact unknown: Unfortunately, the Pokémon GO player couldn’t describe the perpetrators because he couldn’t see them well in the dark. The San Antonio police are looking for the two fugitives, but so far they have no leads. In addition, it is not known whether the attack on the Pokémon GO player was planned or whether he is just an accidental victim. The exact murder weapon is also unknown and has not yet been found. TikTok star Michelle Melody’s boyfriend was also recently stabbed. However, the perpetrator is known here, because it is probably the TikToker herself.
