HERNANDO COUNTY, Fla. (Gray News) – Three men in Florida have been charged after attempting to steal traffic lights using a saw, officials said.
According to the Hernando County Sheriff’s Office, a detective was driving home around 1 a.m. Tuesday when he noticed a suspicious van stopped at an intersection with its headlights turned off.
The detective then noticed sparks coming from the area where traffic lights were in the process of being installed.
Additional deputies arrived at the scene, where they said they found three men using a saw to cut the traffic lights off the poles. By the time law enforcement arrived, the men had already successfully cut down three stop lights and placed them inside the van.

“By the time law enforcement arrived, the men had already successfully cut down three stop lights and placed them inside the van.”
Once again, criminals brought down by their own greed. They could have gotten away with 3 lights but they had to try to get them all.
“3 men arrested for using saw to cut down, steal traffic lights from poles, deputies say”
Hopefully they don’t go to jail for long as there a few locations that I wouldn’t mind hiring them for.
“If they had waited a day or two they wouldn’t have needed to use a saw ..................”
But then they might have needed to rent a boat.
I see the scenario as a bet being made at a party where a whole lot of beer has been consumed.
“The kids all went to prison for (I think third degree) murder.”
Basically any road modification done by an unauthorized person (other than a Leftist) that affects traffic and causes a serious accident is a felony. Something that parents should tell kids who like to ‘mess around’.

Should say, “Three Florida Men…”
Pictures are a bonus.
No DWI?
And don't follow leaders.
I wonder where you find a market for stolen traffic lights. Are cities just going to buy them without question?
Angle grinder violence.
What kind of fencing market is there for stolen traffic signals?
Everytime I try to prove I love you
1, 2, 3 red light stops me
Baby you ain’t right to stop me
1, 2, 3 red light stops me
Everytime I try to love you
1, 2, 3 red light stops me
Baby every night you stop me
1, 2, 3 red light
