To be fair, grave robbing is a very, very old problem.
The thieves just switched from precious metals to regular metals
True. Didn't think about it that way.
So from the article, the theives are stealling bronze and copper things from graveyards. They are stealing things like statues and sculptures. So normal metal theives, better than them cutting down power lines for copper IMO ๐
