洛杉矶铜线盗窃执法行动2人被捕 查获约3000英尺被盗电信铜线、估值约10.2万美元
洛杉矶 — 加州总检察长罗布·邦塔（Rob Bonta）10月16日与洛杉矶县警长局、洛杉矶警察局共同宣布，在洛杉矶市中心开展的一次铜线盗窃执法行动中，执法人员逮捕2人，并查获约4吨铜线，相当于约3000英尺被盗的电信线缆，查获材料估值约10.2万美元。此次行动是加州全州应对铜线盗窃与基础设施破坏激增工作的一部分。
邦塔表示，铜线盗窃代价高昂，州方要确保付出代价的是犯罪者而不是社区；对于让加州社区陷入黑暗、切断重要紧急服务的行为，州方不会容忍。他的办公室正与执法机构、企业界领袖与民选官员合作，应对这一问题，并致力于预防铜线盗窃、保护基础设施与加州居民。
洛杉矶县警长罗伯特·卢纳（Robert Luna）表示，铜线盗窃不只是财产犯罪，也是严重的公共安全问题，可能扰乱基本服务、损坏关键基础设施并使社区面临风险；此次行动显示该局主动识别、调查并追究此类犯罪责任人的决心，今后将继续与执法及社区伙伴合作，保护社区与关键基础设施。
总检察长办公室表示，加州各地铜线盗窃持续上升，已造成社区停电、电信与公用事业服务中断，影响企业与农业运营，并威胁公共安全。办公室列举铜线盗窃与破坏行为的后果包括：扰乱911紧急系统与执法运作、造成停电、给公共交通、高速公路、桥梁与机场带来积压与安全隐患、中断路灯与交通信号灯服务、污染供水与下水系统，以及扰乱医疗设施与学校运作。
Two Arrested in Los Angeles Copper Wire Theft Sting; About 3,000 Feet of Stolen Telecommunications Wire Seized
Los Angeles — California Attorney General Rob Bonta, together with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department, announced on October 16 the results of a copper wire theft operation in downtown Los Angeles. During the operation, two people were arrested and approximately four tons of copper wire were seized, equivalent to approximately 3,000 feet of stolen telecommunications wire. The estimated value of the seized material is approximately $102,000. The operation was part of a statewide effort to address the surge in copper wire theft and infrastructure vandalism in California.
Bonta said copper theft carries a steep price and that the state is ensuring the criminals behind it are the ones who pay it, not California communities. He said his office would not tolerate actors who steal resources that plunge neighborhoods into darkness or cut off vital emergency services, and that it is working with law enforcement, business leaders and elected officials to stop the problem, prevent copper theft, secure infrastructure and protect Californians.
Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna said copper wire theft is not simply a property crime but a serious public safety concern that can disrupt essential services, damage critical infrastructure and place communities at risk. He said the operation demonstrated his department's commitment to proactively identifying, investigating and holding accountable those responsible, and that the department would continue working with law enforcement and community partners to protect communities and safeguard critical infrastructure.
The Attorney General's Office said California has seen an increase in copper wire theft throughout the state, which has left neighborhoods in the dark, resulted in telecommunication and utility outages, impacted business and agricultural operations, and threatened public safety. The office listed the effects of copper theft and vandalism as disruptions to the 911 emergency system and law enforcement operations, power outages, backups and safety hazards on public transit, freeways, bridges and airports, service interruptions to streetlights and traffic lights, contamination of water and sewer systems, and disruptions to healthcare facilities and schools.
