Copper Crimes Rising, Airplane Parts Falling. When police activity is weird, wild or just plain ridiculous, you’ll find it in OMG PD.

Suspects Steal a Ton of Copper

It’s hard to find good help nowadays, especially when that person steals $12,000 worth of copper from a former employer. Two men reportedly stole 2,633 pounds of the metal. This marks a rising trend in Branford.

“Thefts of wire and precious metals are on the increase,” said Capt. Geoffrey Morgan. There was a recent attempted theft of a local artist’s copper sculpture.

Airplane Part Crashes in Woodbridge Yard

A Woodbridge resident called the police after finding a plane propeller on their yard. Police were baffled and called the Federal Aviation Administration to determine what happened. As it turns out, a plane heading to Tweed Airport last week lost a propeller while flying. The plane landing safely, and the mystery of the propeller was solved.
