The Wichita Police Department has teamed up with Evergy, trying to reduce copper thefts.
Evergy and Wichita police have co-produced a short video for Facebook and Twitter, showcasing the hazards of copper thefts.
Evergy says copper thefts can lead to problems at sub-stations, and leaves the valdals or others subject to high-voltage wires.
Copper thieves usually only make out with a few dollars for their trouble, but sometimes leave behind thousands of dollars in damages.
