Recession Is SO Real: Five Random Things People Are Stealing Now A Days

- By Bossip Staff

Brass

Thieves in the Chicago area have been popping open fire hydrants and stealing the brass rings inside, presumably to sell off to a scrap buyer for about $15 a piece. Firefighters need these rings for attaching their hoses, so the thefts by this “ring ring” pose a serious danger to residents. There has also recently been at least one instance of brass being stolen from a cemetery: An ornate brass vase connected by a chain was removed from the gravesite of a World War II marine buried in New Mexico. The flowers at the grave were stolen too.
