Stony Mountain Institution A Potential PokeStop 
 
Pokemon players and characters are cropping up everywhere, even a federal prison in Manitoba.
 
Officials at Stony Mountain Institution issued a bulletin to corrections staff yesterday to make them aware of the game. 
 
There are concerns Pokemon Go may lead to trespassing because some of the prison's landmarks, including the water tower, may be identified in the game as a PokeStop (a place for players to pick up tools and accessories to catch Pokemon characters). 
 
Officials are reminding players that the correctional centre is private property, and any unauthorized entry is trespassing.
