What is the name of your state? OH
I own an apartment building and in this building is a room where all the tennants have little linen type closets for storage. There has been a rash of people sneeking in the building and breaking into them. I have told my tennants in the past that I will not accept resposibility for anything left in there as they are not well designed for security. I have lost a buch of junk I threw in mine. (I live in the building) I never keep anything in there I care about, but I would like to booby trap mine. I have tried hard to catch these *******s, but all efforts have failed. I was thinking of something like a can of mace that is triggered when the door of my personal storage is opened. Assuming the person has to phyically break into a locked door, how much trouble can I get into by doing something like this. Is there a way to lower my liability, but still teach them a lesson?
