UPPER ARLINGTON — Scrap yards and the state legislature are fighting back against stolen scrap metal.
Thanks to “digital scrap theft alerts,” scrap yards and law enforcement can notify each other quickly.
When bronze plaques were stolen from Upper Arlington, police were notified.
Thanks to a compliant scrap yard, they knew who tried to sell them.
Police say not all scrap yards are compliant with state law, which is more than likely going to be addressed during a state legislature meeting that is planned in the coming days.
