Man Shocked Trying to Steal Electric Wires wsbt ^ | 09/28/06 | samuel king Posted on 09/28/2006 11:54:06 AM EDT by hoosierboy (WSBT) A South Bend man was hospitalized with severe burns after he suffered an electrical shock trying to steal copper from a underground power line. It happened on Sample Street, behind the old South Bend Lathe Building, where the man works. That's where crews are tearing down the old Studebaker Factory. Police say the man didn't know the lines were charged, and that's why he went ahead and tried to steal the wire. "The incidents of metal theft have really spiked in the last six to eight months," said David Mayne, spokesman for Indiana Michigan Power. "In the case, of stealing wire off the electric distribution system, you could die for just a few dollars." At last check, the man was in a Fort Wayne Hospital with serious burns to his arms and face. He has not been identified
