The Los Angeles City Council tentatively approved a reward program offering up to $5,000 for tips leading to felony convictions in metal and wire thefts affecting public infrastructure, with a final vote set for October 21.
The measure, backed by Councilmembers Kevin de Leon, Traci Park, and John Lee, aims to support law enforcement efforts, including the LAPD’s Heavy Metal Task Force.
