During a review of scanned data on a recent search we noticed some items that just did not seem to be part of the normal bottom.

After some discussiion with local L/E it was determined that this had been in  the past a dumping place for stolen newspaper dispensing machines.

It was good to be able to have this information.

And to see what was there.

the target did not appear to match the rest of the bottom returns and  did not appear to be what we were looking for...
I pointed this out to the I/C and several of the investigating L/E guys who said this was an old dumping ground for stolen boxes.
what made it unusual was the square shape and slightly off color from other normal bottom returns...
We found several more of the boxes in the area on the recordings..
