By Howard B. Owens

Copper wire from an irrigation pivot was stolen in Stafford earlier this month and the Sheriff's Office is looking for tips that might lead to identifying the person or persons involved.

The wire disappeared from the pivot some time between July 8 and Tuesday from a farm field off of Nilesville Road that is owned by Torrey Farms.

An underground well pump was damaged causing $2,500 damage.
