MOULTRIE, Ga. — A Colquitt County man’s venture seeking treasure in the trash of others ended with his arrest Monday at a self-storage business.

Adrian Soto told police that he was “Dumpster diving” at the 1820 Live Oak Storage facility when they responded there to a report of a suspicious car.

An employee reported that the white Toyota Camry had been seen in the area in the past and a car was parked behind the Camry so that it could not be moved.

The deputy spoke with Soto, who said he had crawled under a fence to get inside the property.

Nothing was reported stolen and a check showed that there had been no break-ins of storage units, police said.

Soto, 21, of 842 U.S. 319 South, was charged with criminal trespass.
