Theft involves the unlawful taking of another's property and is one of the highest invasions of property rights. In some cases, a person you know and trust can take what is rightfully yours without any warning or indication. The most vulnerable victims of theft crimes are often businesses which store large quanitites of valuables unguarded on their property. Desperate or opportunistic people prey upon businesses and steal items and cash for their own benefit to the severe financial detriment of the business.

The Scranton Times-Tribune reports that Chief Daniel Duffy of the Scranton Police Department apprehended a man suspected of breaking into a PPL Facility to steal copper wire this past summer. The suspect is charged with theft, criminal trespass, and burglary.
