When you “gotta catch ‘em all” nothing can stop you, not even a stab wound. Michael Baker of Forest Grove, Oregon, was so focused on catching all the characters in “Pokemon Go” that he kept playing even after he was stabbed.
Baker said he was out attempting to catch the mythical creatures when he was approached by a man who he thought was also playing the game.
“I saw him go by and asked if he was playing Pokemon Go. He was like, ‘WhatIJ’ I guess he wanted to battle because he came up at me with a knife,” said Baker. According to a police report, Baker refused medical treatment and continued his Pokemon hunt.
“I basically risked my life,” Baker said. “It’s important to me. I gotta basically catch them all.” Baker said he got eight stitches on his shoulder. Police have not made any arrest.
