Don't hunt without permission late at night

Ya this sounds totally BS. On the slim chance it actually happened perhaps you should check out any single episode of "Cops". Not a single person who ever runs gets away and when they are eventually caught there are usually 4-5 cops on the guy with at least one kneeling on his neck. I'm going with everyone else and saying good riddens.
 
this story sounds like a fairy tale

If this did happen, you are jeopardizing the metal detecting rights of all of us. Why were you hunting at 3am ? Plus you keep changing your story. Don't be an ignorant knuckle head! Its clowns like you who ruin it for everybody. :mad:
 
This really happened. There is nothing I am making up. I did exaggerate some about being beat down, but I did get chased and locked up. All my stuff was left there in the water. In the woods. This happened very close to Toledo Ohio. Since I intend to go back to the same location and do some more historical research I am not revealing anything else. Stay tuned.

This is the most ridiculous story I have ever heard. If you were out searching without permission at 3am on a property I owned - I would beat you also. At that hour and with your actions, your lucky someone didn't shoot you.

It is a great Fairy Tale though.
 
Maybe the Friendly Metal Detecting Forum's name should be changed to the Friendly and Ethical Metal Detecting Forum so posts like this (true or not) can be deleted immediately...

The same thing happened to me recently. I was water hunting a fountain in the middle of the mall and up come some rent a cops on segways. I didn't ask permission to be there but I thought it was ok. I didn't know it was a private fountain. So I took off running as well. Well I got run over by a segway and brought in for interrogation. They called the local cops which came over and confiscated about $20 in change from me and arrested me saying I was destroying the wishes of the community by taking the change they threw into the fountain while making a wish. The cop that arrested me was very i-rate saying he was one of the wishers and I stole his wish without permission. Who knew.....;)


the sad thing is I could see that happening to some one :?:

This is correct; You should have said "tinkled my pants". WOLF
 
I once got beat up by a lifeguard when I decided to detect inside the lifeguard tower while he was out saving a life. I didn't think I needed permission......Who knew.......;)
