BC Hydro issued a province-wide alert after thieves stole about 8,000 pounds of copper wire from underground cables in Surrey, cutting 1,300 meters of cable across 14 maintenance holes along 64th Avenue between October and December.
The theft, part of a nearly 400% surge in copper thefts over 18 months, poses serious safety risks including exposed wiring and open holes that can cause injury or death.
The utility warns the public to report suspicious activity near electrical infrastructure and avoid damaged equipment, urging calls to 911 or the BC Hydro Security Command Centre.
