And then there was the case of a 16 Yr. old (from Corry) who decided to bend down the fence that protects the miniature town and railroad. He waited till the end of the event, damaged the fence, got into the outdoor train, broke the quartz crystals off from the coal car and subsequently pocketed them. Note: The very expensive Engine Of The Train was damaged beyond repair, after he stopped it with his hands in order to break the quartz crystals free from the coal car that it was pulling.
Now this moron thought that he was too cool so he proceeded to load his pockets with stolen items from the store.
Sheriff Bill caught him about 30 minutes down the road, where he turned from tough guy to mush, pleading... "Hey... I'm just a kid"!
