The police department felt like they were wasting their time on this and they could be doing something more productive than looking out for clues because there were two holes. The police thought that it could be all coincidence. The first hole was not a hole but actually, a road construction problem and the second hole could have been because of the animal. Both the holes could have been dug at the same time and this was all just a coincidence and nothing else. But what about the wires and electric generator?
