The Coos Bay Police Department is seeking leads or the location of an electrical meter panel that was placed in Englewood for the Coalbank Village. Police say that between 3:30 PM yesterday and 6 AM this morning an unknown subject stole the panel for the homeless tent site that’s still under construction. The panel consisted of a large gray electrical box with smaller electrical meter boxes and a long electrical gutter on the other side. The boxes were mounted to marine-grade plywood and two pressure-treated posts. Authorities say the suspect used a chainsaw to cut through the electrical conduits. The stolen property is estimated at 20-thousand-dollars. If you have seen the stolen panels or have a lead the Coos Bay Police Department would like to hear from you by calling 541-26-8911 and talking to Officer Labrousse and reference case number P20211742.
