Steel stolen from Youngstown Metal Fabricating

YOUNGSTOWN

Someone took several large pieces of steel from Youngstown Metal Fabricating, 1640 Wilson Ave., overnight Tuesday, police say.

Police were called at about 8:50 a.m. Wednesday, where employees said they noticed a gate that was locked at 6 p.m. Tuesday was taken apart when they arrived for work Wednesday morning, and an unknown amount of beams and other pieces of steel were taken.

Employees told police it looked as if thieves used one of the company’s own carts to move the steel where it could be placed on something to be driven away, reports said.
