But when Scribner returned his cheating ass home to Queens, his current girlfriend checked the Pokémon he had recently acquired and noticed that he had caught one while near his ex's house in Bushwick.

Although the app doesn't give an exact timestamp, it does provide a date and pretty accurate location, pinpointing exactly where the player caught a specific Pokémon.

“She saw that I had caught a Pokémon while at my ex’s house,” Scribner told the New York Post.

Scribner understandably couldn't find any good excuses for why he would be in Bushwick, so his lady friend left.

“She found out last night at my house and hasn’t contacted me since then,” said Scribner.

So don't cheat, people. And if you do just make sure that you chill with the Pokemon Go because it's gonna get you caught.

And as the Postpoints out, Pokemon go may have ended one relationship, but it's certainly started many more. It may even be helping a few parents bond with their kids.
