While detecting at my old park, which borders the Kansas Turnpike, I noticed three boys crouched along the side of the highway. They were quite a ways off, with a creek between me and them. At first they didn't see me. When a car or a truck would approach, they would rise up and hurl rocks at it. If I would have had a cell phone with me, I would have called the police, but I didn't. Finally they noticed me. They continued to throw rocks. I use a Harbor Freight pinpointer. From a distance it looks like a two way radio. I took it out and acted like I was calling someone. They got up and started walking away. One threw another rock at a truck. I took my camera out of my pocket, and even though they were to far away to get a picture of them, they saw the flash. They must have thought I took their picture, because then they started running. They ran across the park and into a housing development. I couldn't have identified them, but at least I stopped them from throwing any more rocks. They could have killed someone with a rock through a windshield at turnpike speeds.
