COLUMBIA
Man Breaks Into Studio Of HBO Show 'The Wire'
A man who claims he pursues urban exploration as a hobby was arrested this week for breaking into a Columbia studio used to film the HBO show "The Wire."
Michael Steven Arndt, 25, of Columbia was arrested Sunday night after he was found inside an east Columbia warehouse where interior scenes are shot for "The Wire," a much-acclaimed police drama set in Baltimore.
Arndt told the building's security guard that he crawled through the building's trash chute and thought the warehouse was abandoned, according to charging documents. Police said he had a leather bag containing burglary tools.
Arndt was charged with misdemeanor counts of burglary and possession of burglary tools. He was released on his own recognizance.
