how boring must your city be that the news treats this story as a bank robbery??

There are more people running through Century III mall on a daily basis than there were when the mall was still open.

Such a waste of police work

I love how local news is treating this like a major crime, like they robbed a bank or shot someone. So three KZfaqrs walked through the mall and took pictures. Big deal. People post footage from abandoned mall and stores all the time. No one hurt. Desperate to add drama to any story. "Breaking news! A man was caught jaywalking in broad daylight. Film at 11." Note: I edited this response after learning more about urbexing. Never take or damage anything is the golden rule. OK, the guy with the bow was a jerk.

The kind of people who give real urban explorers a bad rep. They go in and ruin it for everyone else.

These KZfaqrs should take this video down for copyright violation as the news stole their footage.

*"Hey I've got a brilliant idea! Let's record ourselves breaking the law, then upload the video to KZfaq!"* 🤦‍♂

Shouldn’t we jail the property owner for leaving a useless dangerous eye sore of a building behind?

The 3 from Ohio should be charged with vandalism too, I have no problem with exploring abandoned places but leave it the way you find it, don't destroy things.

This mall is not safe anymore. DO NOT GO HERE. The time has passed on entering, cops are finally taking action after the kid fell through the roof and fires were started. the mall needs to come down. Until recently power was still on inside the mall, a miracle nobody was electrocuted. Structural engineers said this place isnt safe. Just leave it alone.

If I was just trying to chill and do some Urban exploration I ended up getting charged because somebody was in there and got me on camera

Record yourself commiting a crime and post it on youtube. Great idea!!!!

They probably wouldnt have gotten in trouble if they werent destroying things inside. Alot of youtubers have been going in it since it closed and those people were never charged

That mall was amazing. Just drove by it for the first time in ~20 years, super sad seeing it in the state it's in.

To anyone who doesn’t live here: this is exactly how West Mifflin police are. Blind to actual crime but doing deep dives into KZfaqrs in a mall.

Extradition and felony charges for breaking into something abandoned. That's fucked up

Century III at this point is dangerous as it gets. The interior moldy, filled with broken glass smashed from everything that isn't smashed into a wall, weakened in places by arson and a roof that can't support a person's weight in many spots, having nearly killed one who found out the hard way. And these dimbulbs decided to go in and start filming themselves taking potshots at what's left with a bow and arrow.

The malls ought to start having tours for people to reminisce of the good old days there instead of charging them with felonies. Misdemeanor at worst. I hope they do a jury trial and get acquitted.

When did the Century 3 Mall parking lot get blocked off?

Urbex aren't sopose to damage the place, just video document them. 🤦

They told me in a comment that they did not break in, they just found a door that was open and went in through there, but it's still trespassing.

We don’t want people going into that mall. They might clean it up.

KZfaqrs Urban explorers they know the risks most of them charges won't stick I'm also an explorer I take risks all the time

Going in to a vacant place to film it shouldn't be a problem.. most of these places have some door that's usually not locked.. I suppose the "breaking in" part is a crime... how ever.. most abandon place filmers.. go in film and leave.. when your going in to steal stuff and vandalize.. that's a whole other category and that's wrong..

A teen "fell through the mall"... Excellent reporting

Charging someone with a felony is insane. Why ruin someone's life over some urban exploration? Give them a fine and move on. #policestate

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Completely preventable

Wow, that is overblown.

This reporter sounds like a Moonbeam employee lol

Good job guys...guess it was worth it ...hope the kid with the busted ass is doing well...KZfaq 4EVER😂😅😂💯🏴‍☠️

This is the crime they are worried about?

lol I was at this place a month before it closed. It’s more lively now than it was then

Why do they gotta shoot the stars with a bow man? Those are a fond memory of mine even though I only like 5 when I went. It still sticks with

Great use of police resources. Lets investigate people checking out a useless, abandoned property. Then obtaining arrest warrants. This West Mifflin must be the Beverly Hills of Pittsburgh, no other crime or illegal acts being committing anywhere in that town. Oh, wait, I just checked their crime statistics.... Oh well, kudos to the detectives for a job well done. Asshats...

0:51 thats a mighty fine ip address

Ohio

this is petty what a waste of polices time all the charges were thrown out anyway 😂

Moonbeam says no problem just a depreciating asset

This mall, Century III Mall, experienced significant issues after it was sold to Moonbeam. Prior to the sale, there was round-the-clock security and various other amenities. However, since Moonbeam took over, the situation has deteriorated. It is unfortunate that Moonbeam has not been able to effectively manage and improve the mall. Perhaps it would have been better if the mall had remained under Simon's ownership. This mall has truly gone to hell and shit under the management of Moonbeam. They have allowed it to rot, with burst pipes and even fires occurring, showing a complete disregard for its maintenance and safety. It is infuriating that they claim to have no intention of demolishing it despite letting it reach such a deplorable state. The anger I feel towards Moonbeam is indescribable. Moonbeam has allowed the Century III Mall to deteriorate to a point where the foundation is failing. They have failed miserably in securing the mall, allowing vandals, scrappers, squatters, drug dealers, and illegal traders to freely enter and operate within its premises. It's absolutely infuriating to witness Moonbeam's incompetence and their complete disregard for the mall's well-being. Their work is nothing short of utter shit, and it's a disgrace to see the mall in such a deplorable state under their management. Moonbeam has simply stood by as every store in the Century III Mall closed down, making no effort to attract new anchors or tenants. They have allowed the mall to deteriorate to a state of utter shit, showing a complete lack of care or initiative. It is truly disheartening to witness their negligence and the resulting decline of the mall under their management. Moonbeam's management style seems to align well with purchasing dumps, as they have demonstrated a lack of competence in maintaining and improving the Century III Mall. It is disappointing to see their inability to effectively manage the property and their apparent disregard for its deterioration.

Would be nice to see it get cleaned up fix the roof and open it up again

Lol @ "Christopher Cross"

it needs to be torn down

THIS MALL IS GOING TO SHIT AND IT'S MAKING ME GO CRAZY! THE WAY THIS IS HAPPENING IS UNACCEPTABLE! THIS MALL HAS BEEN LIKE A BEST FRIEND TO ME, AND HOW THE HELL IS MOONBEAM ALLOWING IT TO REACH THIS POINT?! THEIR INCOMPETENCE IS INFURIATING! THEY HAVE SHOWN COMPLETE DISREGARD AND NEGLIGENCE! IT'S ABSOLUTELY MIND-BOGGLING!

Oh no! Anyway...

Gooooo toooo ooooooohiiiiiioooooo
