| 1/29/2012 - Scrap Metal Thefts |
As the price of metal surges, so does the theft of metal. Communities with vacant houses and buildings are particularly vulnerable. In some cases, thieves are demolishing the structures by tearing down walls and ceilings to get at wiring and plumbing. Many property owners have arrived to find flooded basements and thousands of dollars in damage.
Catalytic converters are popular targets as the price of platinum is on the rise. Theft rings are targeting locations where multiple vehicles are parked and stealing dozens at a time. Police are also seeing an increase in thefts of brass backflow valves from irrigation systems.
Victims are encouraged to report the thefts to police, no matter how minor. This provides police with better knowledge of crime patterns.
