Pokémon Go Players Help Find a Missing Man in Burton

Even though it seems like it, not every story surrounding Pokemon Go is a negative one especially this one in Burton.

This past Wednesday the Burton Police Department posted on their Facebook page that an elderly man had walked away from an assisted living home in the south end of Burton. 911 did a reverse call to everybody in the area and the gentleman was found by three ladies playing Pokémon go who got the message on their cell phone.

Burton Police said, "Pokémon saved the day."
