Marion County troopers were responding Friday to a report of a burglary in progress in the man's neighborhood in Jefferson, Ore. According to a press release they asked to search the man's land for suspects, and stumbled on his legal marijuana grow. With the owner's consent, they searched the garden.
There they found the man's ultimate crime: a trip wire rigged to scare off intruders. Sergeant Shane Burnham of the sheriff's office naturally called in the Oregon State Police bomb squad. The bomb squad unhooked the fishing wire from a springun, which held an empty shotgun shell inside.
The gun wasn't aimed to hit intruders, according to the pot-grow owner John Roger Bauer Sr. It was intended as a noise that he hoped would scare them off. Nonetheless, Bauer was arrested for a little-known offense: setting a springgun or setgun. He was cited and released from the Marion County Jail. "The Marion County Sheriff's Office would like to remind people that the setting of springguns is illegal, dangerous and could be
seriously injure or kill someone or law enforcement personnel," reports a press release from the sheriff's office sent out Tuesday.
