Copper wire theft believed to causing cell service outage in Temagami and Martin River

Just last month, cell service in East Ferris was disrupted by copper wire thefts. (File) A cellular service disruption affecting Temagami, Marten River and surrounding areas was likely caused by copper wire thefts, Ontario Provincial Police said Wednesday. Police said the cause is 'damage to communication infrastructure,' which was reported to them at 8 a.m. 'Telecom fibre (had been) damaged, resulting in a major service outage,' the OPP said in a news release. 'Due to the outage, some residents may be unable to place or receive mobile calls, including 911. If you're unable to connect, consider moving to an area where signal may be available. The OPP will maintain an increased presence in the community to support residents. We continue to work with local emergency response partners.' Ongoing investigation Early indications are that copper wire theft is the cause of the outage. 'The OPP is continuing to investigate,' police said. 'For updates on service restoration, contact your cellular service provider.' If confirmed, the incident is the latest case of cell services being disrupted by copper wire theft, following a similar incident last month in East Ferris, near North Bay. Copper thefts have been growing in recent months, including a $100,000 theft involving chopping down and stripping hydro poles in a remote area. Just last month, North Bay police released images of a copper wire suspect in that community. Anyone with information on the latest incident Wednesday is asked to contact the OPP's non-emergency line at 1-888-310-1122. To remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or submit a tip online.

Robbers break into Guelph jewelry store with sledgehammer

Guelph Police are looking for multiple suspects who robbed a jewelry store on Wednesday. Police were called to the Stevenson Street and Speedvale Avenue area around 1:39 a.m. for a break-and-enter. When officers arrived, they found the back door smashed. Security video showed two men getting out of a Black Range Rover SUV before using a sledgehammer to break into the store. The men then made two trips, each time grabbing 'armfuls' of merchandise and placing them in the SUV. Staff at Royal Gold Jewellery & Precious Metals at 328 Speedvale Ave East confirmed to CTV News they were the ones who were robbed. They told officers jewelry fittings, hardware, a box of samples and gold solder, used to join pieces of metal together, were taken. The first suspect was described as a white man, wearing all black with white accents, gloves and a balaclava. The second man was also white and wore an orange and yellow construction vest, a white T-shirt and carried the sledgehammer. A third man, who was driving the SUV, was wearing a blue shirt, jeans, a black, red and white hat and a red bandana. Police asked anyone with information to call Const. Daniel Urbshas at 519-824-1212, ext. 7240, or email durbshas@
