Caledon OPP are reporting a rise in the theft of copper from around the area.
A release from the service says they’re looking into at least six separate copper thefts that were reported in August.
In most cases, thieves are targeting telephone wires in rural areas usually in the middle of the night.
Officials say the suspects will cut the wires from the pole, drag them to the side of the road and get them a day or two later.
Anybody with information is asked to call the OPP or Crime Stoppers.
