Couples from Arizona have been arrested for leaving their 2-year-old son alone, went to go play a Smartphone game.

The Pinal County sheriff's office said on Monday, that 27 years old Brent Daley and 25 years old Brianna Daley, both were arrested after a neighbor found their son who was barefoot,  wearing a diaper and a T-shirt crying outside the couple's home in the night.

The couple said they went to buy gas but had gone in search of virtual Pokemon creatures in their neighborhood for about 90 minutes.

Both have been accused of child neglect and child endangerment, and their son has been turned over to the state's child-protection agency.

Law enforcement agencies have warned people about personal safety while playing the Smartphone game.

Sheriff Paul Babeu in his statement said “But we never would have imagined that parents would abandon a child to play 'Pokemon Go,'" he said. "This goes beyond comprehension."

why is that they took the picture of the woman only, what about the Man who went to play the game with her.
