Title: robbery at old frontier building Post by: jeanne on 30-Nov-10, 11:11:15 PM http://rochesterhomepage.net/fulltext/?nxd_id=220967
Thieves took copper from the new Brockport building (which is located at the Frontier parking lot where we looked at falcons on Xerox) Title: Re: robbery at old frontier building Post by: Donna on 01-Dec-10, 06:14:39 AM Pretty sad isn't it? Here we have people stealing Catalytic Converters from under cars just to get to that piece of copper core inside. Need to hit quite a few cars to get a pound of copper. Is it really worth it? If so, I'm in! :wave: :devil:

This happens many times when some guy looks up at the miles of copper wire along the Railroad tracks, and thinks it would be easy picking :surprise:

When it was discovered, they had to evacuate homes in the immediate area for fear that it was going to blow before it could be safely vented. Very scary!

They have cameras all over the city. Looks like they need some at the county office! |
