Punks Starting a Fire on Railroad Property

Unread post by B-Town »

I was waiting for a train at Powell Road near Lewis Center, Ohio when these two punk teenagers walked up, put a bunch of scrap on the NS tracks, and then started a fire next to the CSX track. I got a photo of them before I called 9-1-1. A cop soon showed up and he knew even on the back of my camera who it was. They were already known for lighting dumpsters on fire. It's just another case of stupid people doing stupid things!!! :x
Here's the photo:

...And then I shot NS ballast train number 923 at Lewis Center:

Yes! The cop actually got on his car's computer and found the person on Facebook. We matched his profile picture to the one I took and we knew it was him! :D
I think this was the definitive proof the department needed to arrest the kids.
