SITKA, Alaska (AP) - Authorities arrested a fugitive convicted on drug and theft charges after finding him hiding this week in what they called an "elaborate tunnel system" dug underneath a trailer home in Alaska.

Meth is one helluva drug!
Crime? in Sitka? Im shocked.. Beautiful town.. but rats live everywhere these days.
How elaborate could it be if it's under just one trailer?
‘forcing them to trudge through on their knees and then on their stomachs.’
They first mastered the art of ‘trudging’ on their knees; then came the harder task of learning to “trudge” on their stomachs.
How did he keep the trailer level?
And the criminal was found after one police officer pulled back the skirting of the trailer?
Must have been one big trailer.
Like gophers... Fill the tunnel with water and they come right out.
"Licensed to kill gophers by the government of the United Nations. Man, free to kill gophers at will. To kill, you must know your enemy, and in this case my enemy is a varmint. And a varmint will never quit - ever. They're like the Viet-Cong...Varmint-Cong. So you have to fall back on superior firepower and superior intelligence. And that's all she wrote."
