MONTREAL, Canada — At least three military police officers were ordered to play Pokemon Go in Canadian bases across the country, after players invaded the facilities in a quest to catch them all. A surge in the number of suspects being apprehended in the summer after the game's release puzzled the army, according to internal documents obtained by Canadian public television channel CBC. At least three military police officers, at different bases across the country, were assigned to wander around army facilities with phones and notebooks in hand to search for virtual Pokemon infrastructure and characters. At the entrance to the base, one woman was caught playing Pokemon Go while her three children were climbing over tanks. Shortly after the release of Pokemon Go, the armed forces even had to issue a public notice warning players not to venture onto military bases.
