Police are appealing for information after a significant amount of copper cabling was stolen from an electricity sub-station.

The theft occurred at the sub-station at Kippen Station, Kippen, near Stirling, sometime between 2pm on Monday March 8 and 10.30am on Tuesday March 9 when 2000m of copper cabling was taken.

A Central Scotland Police spokeswoman said: “To take this amount of cabling, which equates to 2km, would have required a number of people. They would also have probably used a van or trailer. We appeal for anyone who may have seen any suspicious activity in this area or who has information to contact us.”
