Police from Roma Stock And Rural Crime Investigation Unit want to talk to anyone who may have witnessed heavy vehicles driving around the Roma district over weekend carrying large quantities of copper cabling, particularly if they sighted the vehicles travelling on back roads.
Police are also asking the public to keep an eye out for anyone who they see in possession of similar cabling who normally would not have a need for it.
