Weird crime: Snow stalls scrap thieves

The skinny: State police said some would-be scrap metal thieves didn't account for snowy conditions when they targeted a building in Venango Township earlier this week.

What we know: Troopers were called to Macedonia Road on Tuesday to check out a report of a suspicious vehicle that was off the roadway. Police said they learned after arriving on scene that one man had stolen scrap metal from a building on the road, and that two others were planning to do the same but got their vehicle stuck in the snow.

Case update: The suspects, ages 19, 20 and 46, are under investigation, police said Friday.
