Pinkstaff was preparing to cut a fiber-optic line on the tower when he was confronted at the location.
A search of his person uncovered illegal drugs.
Pinkstaff has been charged with Theft, Criminal Mischief, Possession of Methamphetamine and Cocaine and is being held on $5000 bond in the Knox County Jail.
