• Between Nov. 30 and Dec. 3, a theft by taking occurred on U.S. 41 in Ringgold resulting in the theft off approximately $350 worth of wire from the location.
The complainant stated that an unknown offender(s) climbed over a chain linked fence that also has three runs of barbed wire running above it and stole a considerable amount of copper wire from the construction site.
Upon arrival, it was discovered that the copper wire had been pulled from the ground and cut off with bolt cutters.
Although the wire was only valued at $350, the estimated expense of labor and equipment to replace the stolen wire was said to be $1,500.
Employees with the construction site told police that they had no knowledge of any leads or possible suspects.
Extra patrol was added to the construction site for nights and weekends, and the case was turned over to detective Daniel Thacker.
