Other Crap

"Baltimore city streets are getting darker because thieves, some disguised as utility crews, are stealing 30-foot light poles"

• The scrap metal in the light pole is worth about $80, which must be less than the cost of removing them and hauling them away! But what the thieves lose in margin, they make up in volume. They have stolen 130 poles.
• Get this. It has been going on for months, and not a single one has ever surfaced at a salvage yard.
