OT - Cable and Lead thefts
Whenever I read of a copper cable or pipe theft the report inevitably
headlines the replacement cost - or the cost of the damage and not the likely much smaller scrap value that the theft may have earned the thieves. I think this appears to make thefts more attractive to the criminal fraternity. Having seen the price of a length of copper pipe in B&Q, it hardly seems worth getting caught stealing it and taking it to a scrap dealer - and possibly sharing the proceeds. |
