Another rash of copper thefts is affecting local business.
Police have reported several thefts involving copper wiring and materials over the Thanksgiving weekend around Jenkins and near the Virginia and Kentucky state lines.
WYMT reports Kinetic customers lost service on Thanksgiving night and crews also responded to multiple cuts over the holiday weekend in Manchester.
Since summer Kinetic has been offering a reward of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of anyone found guilty of charges related to these copper thefts.
