Police in Port Moody are investigating after thieves made off with telephone wire from a pole.

Police say the theft happened on January 13th, when officers were called to an area near Ioco Road and First Avenue at around 4 a.m.

Residents are asked to be vigilant and report possible wire thefts when they see suspicious activity, as there was a rash of similar cases in the spring of 2024.
