There is now a heightened concern over precious metal theft, including copper wire in the Valley. Thieves recently targeted CenturyLink Phoenix lines that had the potential to take out 911 access.
These thefts have also taken a personal toll on local families, who are dealing with memorials to loved ones being stolen right out of cemeteries. One of the oldest cemeteries in Phoenix, St. Francis Catholic Cemetery happens to be among the latest places targeted by these thieves.
