Copper Thieves Strike Plant Near Elgin

Posted: Updated:

ELGIN Okla_ Thieves take off with thousands of dollars in copper over the weekend, and they're still on the loose.

Authorities said someone broke into a storage shed at the Dolese Brothers Rock Plant near Elgin. They were able to cut the door and the lock to the shed, where they stole 2 spools of insulated copper wire and one spool of non-insulated wire.

Both are worth about $12,000 to $15,000. Right now, the thieves are still out there and no one knows just how they were able to get into the plant.

    As advertised, today was exceptional with lots of sunshine and comfy temperatures. We'll repeat it tomorrow before turning a bit unsettled at times next week.l
    The pile of rain and storms that came through during the early afternoon hours will be out of our viewing area by tonight.
