Reward offered for power-line vandals

Wednesday, Aug. 18, 1999 | 11:12 a.m.

Crews discovered about 30 damaged insulators over the weekend on power poles in Lewis Canyon about 10 miles south of here.

They said the vandals were using the insulators for target practice, but were endangering their own lives as well as those of unsuspecting visitors to the area who could have been electrocuted if they came in contact with the downed power lines.
