Theft – Pictou County

Crime Stoppers is asking for the public’s help in solving the following case of theft.

Between July 13, 2010 and July 20, 2010 unknown suspects cut down several neutral power lines from power line poles on MacGee Road, Knoydart, Pictou County. This is not an isolated incident as similar occurrences have been reported in Antigonish and Guysborough Counties. The suspects are using a pole and saw, similar to a pruning saw, and cutting the bottom (neutral) wire from the power line poles. This will not affect power supply although it may disrupt power briefly with a flicker which could provide a time line for an investigator. No suspects have been identified at this time.

If you have information regarding these crimes please call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, or submit a Secure Web Tip at https://crimestoppers.ns.ca.
