NO BULL-ion: Search for gold nuggets ends with Mattoon men in jail for arson
HAWANO COUNTY, Wis. (WBAY) - A search for gold nuggets ended with the arrests of the potential prospectors for arson and other crimes in Shawano County.
This happened on Feb. 29. At about 4:45 p.m. that day, the Mattoon Fire Department was called to a report of a house fire in the Town of Hutchins.
Firefighters immediately suspected the fire was set because the house was unoccupied and the power was off. The Shawano County Sheriff's Office, Wisconsin Department of Criminal Investigation and State Fire Marshal's Office were called in to investigate. A K9 sniffed out the presence of accelerant.
This is where the case gets interesting. Officers tracked down two Mattoon men identified as Corey A. Welch, 34, and Bryan M. Wendler, 37. The men had been at the property in search of $20,000 in gold nuggets that "had been hidden by the previous owner."
The nuggets were nowhere to be found. That's when they used diesel fuel to set the house on fire, according to the Sheriff's Office.
(It gets even better from here on)

Oh, we've got a million of 'em....
About 10 years ago in a rural area near (IIRC) Merrill, a couple of 20-something guys were cooking Meth. Something went wrong and the explosion blew the old farmhouse clean off of its foundation.
