I'll find out what I can and get back with you Monday after work.

It may turn out that somebody piggy backed somebody else at the turnstile. You don't just "walk in" at any of these places.
All vehicles go through a guard location. All contractors go through a controlled entry with a scan card.

Very little info and since no suspect was found...we'll see.

Very little to tell you. Very tight lipped.

A man who "knew nothing" let it slip in conversation (I'm a sneaky bastard) that some of the hands/workers were the ones who reported the person being on site.

I'll keep at it.

Thanks, I wouldn’t be surprised if there never was a security breach, I imagine that people are a leeeetle jumpy after a fire...
