Verizon Central Office Heist Spoiled By 911 Outage

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Saturday November 27, 2004 @09:14AM from the not-exactly-ocean's-11-here dept.

Qbans writes with a link the NYTimes story on a foiled robbery attempt at a Verizon Central Office in White Plains, New York, snipping "The plan seemed simple enough. The building had been cased and the burglars knew exactly what they wanted - advanced computer circuit panels that could be sold on the black market for hundreds of thousands of dollars." Qbans points out that this story parallels a previous story on how equipment was (successfully) stolen last May.
