ROBERTSDALE, Alabama --- The Baldwin County Sheriff’s Office is currently investigating a series of copper thefts from a Power South substation located near the Elsanor community east of Robertsdale.

According to a press release issued Tuesday by BCSO Investigator Eric Winberg, the first theft occurred at the substation, located on the west side of Greek Cemetery Road, south of County Road 87, on Aug 22. The substation was hit again on Aug. 29.
