Yes, if you wander onto my property, I can have you charged with trespassing. However the police should not fine/arrest/etc you if I don't press charges. I think the real question here is whether the owner of the bandwidth pressed charges. If not, why were the police involved? I'm sure none of the fine money went back to the alleged victim.
