Last weekend, opening of firearms deer season here in mn he sees his neighbor is using his road to access the back side of his own land. My buddy has repeatedly told him to stay off his land and he has finally reached the end. We have fresh snow here so there is no denying what happened.
Buddy calls local pd and another buddy of mine shows up and issues a citation for trespassing and leaves it on the guys truck.
2 hours later a conservation officer calls by buddy to ask about the incident so he explains it. turns out the guy was nailed for baiting deer last year. Buddy tells CO that he is positive that the guy will be back out trespassing after lunch.
CO shows up to find ripped up citation laying on the ground and fresh tracks where the guy went around my buddies gate again, and right down my buddies road. Game warden follows tracks and runs into trespasser on the road. Trespasser says he and my buddy are friends and he has permission. CO calls buddy and of course he denies it, and sends a copy of some texts my buddy and the trespasser have exchanged which make it clear he isn't to be on my buddies land. Trespasser says that isn't his number... CO calls it, low and behold the phone in the trespassers pocket rings!
CO issues him another citation and tells him he should issue him a littering citation for throwing the ticket on the ground. he went from the first ticket of a petty misdemeanor to now he gets a citation for a misdemeanor as its his second violation now.
CO calls buddy back and says he walked him out to his truck so its over. Buddy tells him I bet he comes back.
CO comes back 25 minutes later and low and behold guy is there again! CO walks into his stand and guy gets weird. he would not make eye contact and is dicking around with something out of sight of CO who is on the ground. CO draws gun and instructs the trespasser to toss his gun out of the tree stand to the ground! He gets his down and walks him out again, this time the co is carrying the guys gun.
3rd ticket in 3 or 4 hours and now we are up to gross misdemeanor with all the charges!
this guy is a nutbag and he will be on the news someday doing something dumb
This is the best trespassing story ive ever heard!
