Men stole $13K worth of metal from Henry County construction site

Henry County police are asking the public for help identifying two men accused of stealing $13,000 worth of metal from a construction site.

The theft occurred April 3, Henry police said Thursday in a news release.

The location of the construction site was not disclosed and it’s unclear exactly what type of metal was stolen.

The suspects were captured on the construction site’s surveillance video, authorities said. Anyone with information about the case is asked to call investigators at 770-957-9121.

Last week, Cobb County police secured arrest warrants for a Florida airman accused of stealing more than 11,000 pounds of copper wiring from Dobbins Air Reserve Base in Marietta.

According to police, Eric Tavarus McCray stole the spools between March and December of last year and then pawned the building material for more than $18,000 at a recycling plant in Fort Walton, Florida.
