Full Notification

The Pocatello Fire Department would like to request all citizens who are playing the newest virtual reality scavenger hunt game Pokémon Go to exercise caution. Many government facilities have been selected to have Pokémon and Poke Stop’s. The fire stations are as busy places with calls coming in at all times of day and night. We are requesting the public help in avoiding walking, parking or loitering in front of the bay doors at all five of our fire stations and areas where training is being conducted. The Pokémon Go is a great way for people to get outside, and get more exercise, but please use caution and do it safely. We ask that you share this with your family and friends to assist us in getting this word out. Happy Hunting!
