Something must be going on with Pokemon GO players in Japan lately, because this is the second arrest related to the game in a week's time!

A 35-year-old Pokemon GO player in Sapporo, Japan was arrested for punching another Pokemon GO player in the face repeatedly. The 35-year-old was walking down the street while playing Pokemon GO, which is when he noticed a crappy parking job. When he got closer to the car to inspect, he spotted someone sitting inside playing Pokemon GO. The 35-year-old player was so enraged by the sloppy parking job that he kicked the car, which lead to the driver getting out.

When the car's owner opened the door to get out, the 35-year-old man rushed him to punch him in the face twice. The man who was assaulted got a hold of the enraged player and dragged him to the police. Thankfully, it doesn't seem that the man who got punched suffered any major injuries.
