[quote="Wool over my eyes"]What I don't get is that the break-in occurred around midnight, and @ 4am the Stat police came by to set up a perimeter. If the bad guys are familiar with the woods, they can be near the dam and across to Cranbury neck road in no-time. And all of this because of a break-in? There has to be more to this story.[/quote]

Regardless of the intent or the purpose, if they illegally entered the building after hours without permission, they were in the wrong. And how can you possibly say the police overreacted? They receive notice that people have illegally entered the school, they come to check it out, the people bolt and the police give chase. What part of that is inappropriate? Since the suspects fled the police -- an entirely separate and if you're version of events is correct even more serious crime than their original offense -- how were the police to know that they were "really just good kids who wanted to check out the school for nostalgic reasons”? All the police knew is they had a couple of people who has illegally entered for reasons unknown and were fleeing the scene. Any action they took after that was a natural reaction to the then fugitives escape. I applaud the police for their response and I suspect most of the people in our township would agree they acted appropriately and these men (not boys) were in the wrong.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Guest</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon, Nov 2 2009, 5:11 pm EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Anyone know what the 4am search over the Wright Property was all about?</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">look pal, of course i know the difference between breaking in and entering, i don't need an english lesson from you. you are missing what i am trying to tell you, without telling you. you and guest are so ready to convict them. i resent being called ignorant by an obviously pompous person, and yes i do still think of them as boys since i've known them for that long.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>disappointed</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon, Nov 2 2009, 3:00 pm EST<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Anyone know what the 4am search over the Wright Property was all about?</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Still disappointed especially after Guest 1000's reply.
