Hills Police are investigating a series of incidents involving the theft of telecommunications cabling in the Kenthurst, Maraylya and Annangrove areas.

We are particularly seeking information about:
• vehicles stopping or parked along these roadways, especially at night or early morning
• persons seen near power poles or roadside infrastructure
