It takes real brass to steal copper. Theft of the ductile metal is no surprise; for years, people have been illegally stripping copper to sell through salvage yards. It's found at construction sites, in wiring, home downspouts, as decorative sheeting on buildings, in the coils of air conditioners.
But a recent spate of thefts in the Mt. Lebanon area could be the work of a bold team that removed the copper from South Hills homes and two churches in at least 11 incidents since Aug. 20.

Thieves are "still at it" according to the most recent police blotter. This time on Hazel.
Where is a copper when they are stealing this copper?
Bye Cu.
No, buy, Cu.
Cu now, no CU later.
