南卡罗来纳州 Charleston — Charleston 警方11月6日逮捕一名35岁男子，指控他为了保住购买新款宝可梦卡牌的排队位置，在凌晨让6岁的女儿独自睡在 Target 门店外，自己回家去了。
警方说，11月6日凌晨约2时30分，警员接到有儿童无人看管的报告，赶到位于 Charleston 市 West Ashley 社区的一家 Target 门店外。当时有大批顾客为抢购当天发售的宝可梦集换式卡牌新系列彻夜排队。目击者告诉警员，女孩的父亲 John-Michael Dooley 在凌晨1时过后给女儿铺好枕头和毯子、让她睡在队伍里，然后离开。
Dooley 家住 Johns Island。警方说，他后来返回门店，被在场目击者指认，接受侦探讯问时承认自己回家、把女儿留在店外，就是为了保住排队位置、怕错过买卡的机会。他被控一项「对儿童不法行为」罪名，关押在 Al Cannon 拘留中心，保释金定为4万美元。依南卡罗来纳州法律，该罪名属重罪，定罪最高可判10年监禁。

South Carolina Father Arrested After Leaving His 6-Year-Old Daughter Alone Overnight in a Target Line to Hold His Place for Pokemon Cards
CHARLESTON, South Carolina — Charleston police arrested a 35-year-old man on November 6, accusing him of leaving his 6-year-old daughter sleeping alone outside a Target store in the middle of the night so that he could hold his place in line to buy a new Pokemon card release while he went home.
Police said officers responded at about 2:30 a.m. on November 6 to a report of an unattended child outside the Target store in Charleston's West Ashley neighborhood, where numerous customers had gathered overnight for the release of a new Pokemon Trading Card Game set. Witnesses told officers that sometime after 1 a.m., the girl's father, John-Michael Dooley, gave his daughter a pillow and a blanket, left her asleep in line, and left.
Dooley, of Johns Island, returned to the store, was identified by witnesses, and told detectives he had gone home and left his daughter outside to maintain his place in line because he feared missing the chance to buy the cards, police said. He was charged with unlawful conduct toward a child and booked into the Al Cannon Detention Center, with bond set at $40,000. Under South Carolina law the charge is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison.
The girl was unharmed and was placed into emergency protective custody with the South Carolina Department of Social Services, police said. The cards on sale that day were the new Mega Evolution - Delta Reign expansion.
