That's the same address that was on here in 2022. When they busted the landowner, Bryan Douglas MsAninch, and 11 others in a copper theft ring. They were stealing huge rolls of copper communication wire & burning the insulation off in backyard fires at this address. This guy is still doing this??? With that much copper wire. He had to be burning it everyday. How did his neighbors put up with it?
