I quote from the BBC website:

Police said they were looking for "people acting suspiciously on Friday night, possibly covered in soil".

Having read a few links to this incident,i cannot see any reference to it taking 6hrs to dig,the police seem to think it took months to dig,which is a rather over -estimate.

Why does everything have to be so serious and word perfect with you ?
They said it happened between midnight and six AM
I really couldn't give two shits , life is too short
please don't go on to tell me average life spans of people in the UK
Everyone else seems to be taking it light hearted , but not you ?

If the old adage that 'A mine is a hole in the ground surrounded by thieves' is anything to go by, then yes, this was mining. :lol:
