Copper Wire Theft: Culprits Pull the Plug.

On Monday, September 5th around 2-3 AM, a group of thieves stole copper wire out of the Lincoln High School portables, causing power outages in the last 3 classrooms and an internet outage in the Lincoln Plus program. Thanks to the help of the SJUSD maintenance department, the wire was replaced in short order. Unfortunately, the culprits have not been caught, despite support from both the San Jose Police Department and the SJUSD in-house security. Stay tuned for Lion Tales’ investigation into this troubling trend.
