Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:54:11 GMT

More info visit www.newsinfusion.comSeptember 2nd 2009 -Rising commodity prices for metals, combined with the crisis in the housing market, have created a unique opportunity for thieves who are stealing scrap metal from abandoned and foreclosed homes and selling the material to unwitting recyclers.

(ISRI), the national trade association for the $87 billion industry, began working aggressively to combat the theft problem by creating coalitions with local law enforcement agencies.
