Police say men trying to steal power lines shocked


Thursday, May 15, 2008



(05-15) 15:47 PDT Confluence, Pa. (AP) --

Two Somerset County men are charged with trying to steal live power
lines that were still attached to a transformer and utility poles.

Police said Kevin Lee Lytle, 27, and Daniel Jay Basinger, 24, both of
Confluence, were shocked during the theft attempt on May 3 in Lower
Turkeyfoot Township.

Both were charged Wednesday, but only Basinger was well enough to
attend his arraignment on the attempted theft charge.

Police say the incident disrupted power to area residences for about
five hours. Penelec Power Co. owns the lines which suffered $1,500
damage.

The Associated Press could not immediately reach either man for
comment.
