Poll: Have you ever had copper/building materials stolen?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Julie Guest woke at midnight to the sound of copper being stripped off her church - and startled the perpetrator.

The exhausted vicar was sleeping on-site at St John’s Church, Te Awamutu, amid a string of thefts in her patch, “trying to be the policeman as well as the priest”.
