Four men were cited on charges of criminal trespassing and criminal mischief charges after they got four trucks stuck in a field on private property, police said.

The men were using four-wheel drive trucks in a reforested meadow on private land owned by SDS Lumber Company on March 18 when the white 1986 Toyota pickup and blue 1987 Ford Bronco became stuck in the mud, Oregon State Police Lt. Gregg Hastings said.

The men left and came back the next day with a 2001 Toyota Tundra pickup and a tan Humvee that one of the men checked out from the Army National Guard to pull the stuck trucks out of the mud, Hastings said.

While trying to free the trucks, the men got the Humvee and Tundra stuck as well and had to call a tow truck, Hastings said.

An OSP trooper investigated and found that the men had caused more than $1,000 in damage to the reforested field and cited four men from Mosier: Jimmie Lee Champion, 20; James Caleb Crismon, 26; Jonathan M. Crismon, 26; Travis Wayne Millar, 27.
