Baltimore - A body-worn police camera caught a crash in which the driver was playing "Pokemon Go," Baltimore police said. Police said the video shows a car crashing into a parked Baltimore police cruiser around 3:30 a.m. Monday in the 2900 block of Eastern Avenue. The officer had activated the camera after the collision. The camera buffers and backs up 30 seconds. Officers, who had just finished a call, caught up with the driver, who said, "That’s what I get for playing this dumb(expletive) game." Police said the driver fully admitted that he was playing the game. There were other people in the vehicle. "This could have easily been somebody crossing the street and struck by the vehicle. There could have been somebody inside that vehicle, but fortunately, there wasn't," said T.J. Smith, chief of Media Relations for Baltimore police.
