Police stopped the pickup truck of Anon Thongrod on Phaholyothin Road in Tambon Tha Chanuan at 1.30am. He had allegedly cut and stolen the cables from Tambon Khung Samphao in Chai Nat's Manorom district.
Police found 31 pieces of 1.30-metre-long cables and one 14-metre-long cable at the back of his pickup.
