CABLE theft at The Hercules Substation in Richards Bay left several suburbs without electricity for two hours during the early hours of this morning.
According to reports, a suspect broke into the substation around midnight.
He removed a palisade in the fence, gained entry through a back door and removed cables and wires as well as vandalized a buszone panel.
As he fled through the nearby bushes with the stolen property, he was apprehended by police and arrested.
