even if it was private property (i know it wasn't), i would guess that it's probably illegal to set a "trap" like that.
I'm pretty sure it's irrelevant whether the land is public or private.

you can't even set up Home Alone style traps in your own house.

People v. Ceballos, 12 Cal. 3d 470 (1974). Ceballos resided above a garage that had been broken into previously. He noticed that the lock had been tampered with and set up a "trap gun". Basically a .22 rifle wired to the door. Two youths subsequently broke into the dwelling and one was shot in the face but survived.
Ceballos was convicted by a jury of assault with a deadly weapon and appealed to the California Supreme Court. The Court upheld the conviction on a number of grounds. Of interest to us is the trap gun
