A young woman has been killed following a 'despicable hit-and-run' crash after going out to play Pokemon Go.
Tanami Nayler, 22, had gone out to play the augmented reality game when she was hit by a car and dragged more than 70 metres down the road and killed in Melbourne, Australia.
Police said her phone was in her pocket at the time after her and a friend had just finished scouring the streets to catch Pokemon characters on Friday night.
She was hit by a stolen Toyota Corolla before the driver allegedly sped away through a red light and later crashed into a tree and a telegraph pole.

Detective Inspector Stuart McGregor described the tragedy as 'an absolute waste of life'.
He said: "All she did was just walk across the pedestrian crossing, legally, and [she] has unfortunately paid with her life because of someone else's behaviour.
"It's fair to say that this is probably one of the lowest acts I think you can commit on the road. To me it's just despicable."
