A $1,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the arrest of suspects or accomplices in the theft of copper coils and compressors from a vacant store space in Alexandria Village Green Shopping Center sometime between March 1 and March 4.
The copper and compressor thefts were from six heating and air-conditioning units damaged beyond repair on a 50,000-square-foot vacant space in the shopping center, according to an e-mail from Scott McFall, regional property manager for Phillips Edison & Co. No surveillance images were obtained, according to McFall.
To provide a tip call McFall at 513-746-2553 or e-mail:
There are currently no suspects in connection with the copper thefts, said Alexandria Police Department Lt. George Schreiner. The thefts from heating and air-conditioning units at the shopping center have similarities to other thefts in Cincinnati, Schreiner said. Investigators are working to see if there are any connections linking the Alexandria thefts to suspects in the Cincinnati copper thefts, he said.
