so what do you think, if he had actually been urban exploring and not scrapping would the cops had treated him differently?

Big difference between having a tripod, a seven-pound, $1000 camera and a backpack full of lenses to a pile of tools and coiled copper wire, freshly scrapped.

Of all the things to say to the cops while caught in the act, "I'm just Urban Exploring" doesn't seem like one of best things to say. Guy was screwed regardless, but damn.

Once, when some cops chased me up a tunnel, I took a left tunnel and after about 20 meters I wet my feet and walked backwards to split and backwards up the right tunnel until my footprints dried up, turned around and took off and got out a manhole.

I went back a few hours later & found multiple sets of footprints going up the left tunnel.

Win.

People said it was a brilliant idea, but they didn't know that I'd recently seen The Shining ;)

And yes, it seems the police didn't notice that my footprints got wetter as they went on

Cheers

As I was reading I was thinking this is one of the occasions police arrested an explorer. Then I got to the copper part.

OK, so I admit the guy was PROBABLY scrapping, but we don't really know that for sure. I can imagine that when the cops went through the place, they were probably looking for anything they could pin on him to add to a trespassing charge. It seems to me that if that's what he was there for, he would have been caught in the act, or at least carrying the copper or the tools. Then again, if he wasn't doing it, that would mean that someone else came in, did the hard work, then left their prize behind for no good reason I could think of. Who knows.




If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire... Tunnelrunner33!

Jeebus. As if 1460s aren't hard enough to run in as they are.
Those diamond tread 8-holes were horrible. Never had a pair of Doc's lose their hind loops or pop eyelets before those.
