WITOKA, Minn. – A homeowner reported 80 pounds of copper tubing stolen from his place on Wiscoy Ridge Road in south Winona County. The tubing was in two bundles, light enough to haul off easily. This was in the 30000 block of Wiscoy Ridge. Probably it was the night of June 30, deputies were told. An investigator began a check of scrapyards in the copper business. A typical price: $4.60 a pound retail but less if fenced.
