That doesn't look like a complex to me... it's a single building by itself surrounded by a parking lot which seems intended only for customers of Brewed Awakenings...
Here's a photo from the front of the store... yep, it's a single building alright... so it's almost certainly a PRIVATE parking lot.

That makes the most sense to me. I'll go with that and give in on this. I guess I'm the only one that thinks the way I do about this. I'll stop posting about it.

We also agree being arrested for stealing wi-fi is absurd. I see your point. In normal cases, you should not be arrested for it - you should be sued for it.
He just did far more than just steal wi-fi however. And for all that he deserves to be booked and released to scare him away for good.
im thinking they called 911 either because:
1. he was acting creepy....you know a nerd that has lost his broadband connection and has to step his 'pastey white skin been in my mother basement since i was weened from her teet' ass is a creepy site fo sho
2. was surfing for porn and killign kittens?
3. annoying other patrons and or being a bandwidth hog
4. threatened them (think of the e-penis posted on here) ill kick your ass! ill sue you!!
5. was acting ..umm terrorist like?!

OK, that's WAY more information then I needed....
the parking lot is for the business invitees of the stores that lease space. this guy had been kicked off the premises by the business. it becomes trespassing when he refuses to leave. the owner of the property has no right to possession of leased premises, and so is not the one with authority to determine who stays/goes with regard to leased premises, such as the parking lot.
The idiot didnt leave, he was warned.
I think this is a touchy issue, they have a free wireless access point, they accept the consequences of people leeching off it.
But this guy was told to leave and didnt, so imo crossed the line. Now if he was in his house, I think the coffee shop is screwed because they have "free" internet access.
Lock it down numbskulls if you dont want leechers.
Be funny to see the Masters history and english degree holders working behind counter try to figure out how to lock it down lmao.

probably not. all you have is a mere suspicion, which doesn't amount to reasonable suspicion, much less probable cause (which, as one commentator pointed out, doesn't even have to be probable, but lawyers don't understand odds for the most part so the commentator didn't realize that odds of 30%-20%-15%-15%-15%-5%, the 30% is the probable outcome)
