Info: "Police used force to enter a property after hearing a fan running while the occupant wasn't home. They kicked in and damaged doors to gain entry, only to find cryptocurrency mining computers where they expected to find a marijuana grow room. I never would have thought a few Nvidia 1080tis and a little bitcoin would have caused so much drama."
