Maryland State Police arrested three individuals last week in connection with a series of copper wire thefts that caused damage and outages across Cecil County.
Charged were Brian Clark Tulley, 55, of Harbeson, DE; Stacey Lyn Tulley, 46, of Elkton, MD; and David Mark Fenstermaker, 62, of Elkton.
All three are charged with felony theft as well as, multiple misdemeanor theft and malicious destruction of property.
The arrests arose from three separate incidents in which copper wire, belonging to Verizon, was cut from power poles throughout Cecil County. The thefts resulted in communication service interruptions and caused damage exceeding $66,000.
The Maryland State Police Criminal Enforcement Division Northern Region has been investigating a series of similar copper theft cases throughout the region over the past year.
Copper thefts causing outages have also been reported in Delaware, due in part to high copper prices.
Multiple investigations remain open and ongoing. Anyone with information related to copper wire thefts is asked to contact investigators at 410-996-7814.
