They're cutting the main telephone cable.
Very low voltage, so they won't get fried.
They'll burn it so it will be unidentifiable to get an ID off the casings.
Though it's kind of obvious what they burnt when there's 500-24 AWG wires.
#2 copper @$4.70 lb. That's the reason why.
 

Some people die just because they are idiots!
Yes, they're called The Darwin Awards! 😁

The beat cops that used to check my scrap yard had this term: "Air Robbers"
I asked: And what would that be?
"They steal the air we breathe"

Couldn't think of anything lower actually. 🤣
 

Hopefully they have not bred first. Some people just need to exit the gene pool.

Sadly as most know the gene pool has a way of surviving.
Welfare breeds Welfare.
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
Like father, like son.
It's unbelievable what they steal, how bold they are actually.
I have helped return items, products, inventory, that has come into the yard.

The theft of brass plaques, urns from the cemetery. There must be a special place for these low life's.
They all left in the back of a cruiser if they tried sell the bronze/brass items.
