Is your plastic hauling tank a fishing tote that commercial fishermen use on the Great Lakes approx 5' x 5' x 4' high with a lid? The fisherman use this on their boats to store their catch on crushed ice?
With respect to people who break the law, the homeowner must be carefully in how much force or protection he uses and what is seen as reasonable under the circumstances. Excessive force or protection means can be dealt with criminally or civilly where the evidence is weighed more on a balance of probability not beyond a reasonable doubt. A few years ago an federal inmate tried to escape from a maximum security prison and in the process broke his back......the courts awarded him a disablity pension for life from his permanent injuries sustained while trying to escape and committing an indictable offence.......go figure???????
