Guelph police are investigating the theft of a large amount of wire from a north-end construction site.
Investigators say three storage containers outside a manufacturing facility near the intersection of Woodlawn Road and the Hanlon Parkway (Highway 6) were broken into sometime between Friday afternoon and Monday morning.
They say thieves managed to gain entry by cutting the locks off.
Approximately $10,000 worth of coils of wire were taken.
