A Dad Let His Six-Year-Old Wait in Line Overnight for Pokémon Cards?
A 35-year-old man in South Carolina named John-Michael Dooley was arrested after leaving his six-year-old daughter alone outside a Target . . . overnight . . . to hold his place in line for Pokémon cards. (This was for the new Pokémon “Mega Evolution: Delta Reign” set.)
It happened last Friday, and she was alone when they showed up at 2:30 A.M. . . . sleeping on the pavement, with just a pillow and a blanket.
Thankfully, others noticed, and called the cops. The girl is fine . . . although she’s been placed into emergency protective custody.
John-Michael was charged with unlawful conduct toward a child. For what it’s worth, he said the media coverage has been inaccurate, but didn’t specify what was incorrect.
