$400,000 In Copper Wire Stolen From Plymouth Twp. Company: Police

PLYMOUTH TOWNSHIP, PA — More than $400,000 in copper wire was stolen over a period of months from a Plymouth Township engineering company, police announced this week. Three people have been arrested and two more remain wanted.

The thefts occurred at Infrasource, located on 1027 Conshohocken Road. Infrasource is immediately adjacent to the recently closed Cleveland Cliffs Steel plant where similar thefts of metal were reported last week, also leading to eight arrests.

Police said suspects broke into Infrasource during the overnight hours, typically by breaking through locked gates and perimeter fences.

"Once inside the property, the offenders spent hours cutting wire from the spools, loading it into vehicles, and ultimately turning it into scrap yards in the region," Plymouth Township Police said.

A total of 15,000 pounds of wire was stolen over a period of several months, dating back to Aug. 2025, police said.

Philadelphia residents Edgardo Albandoz, 26, Yozuet Pagan, 21, and Marc Champagne, 36, have all been arrested and charged with corrupt organizations, dealing in unlawful proceeds, burglary, criminal trespass, theft, and related counts.

Two men, Philadelphia residents Derrick Rowland, 34, and Osiris Beko Ra Jones, 38, remain wanted on similar charges connected to the Infrasource thefts.

The investigation remains ongoing. If you have any information, contact police at 610-279-1901 or email a tip Tips@plymouthtownship.org, referencing incident number 25-14897.
