I guess the thought of a job never occurred to this guy.Savannah police say a homeless man was electrocuted after apparently trying to steal copper from wires on a utility pole.
The Savannah-Chatham Metro Police say the man, whose identity was withheld until notification of relatives, fell from the pole near the Amtrak station Sunday night after he tried to cut live wires at the top.
More than 100 cases of copper theft were reported to Savannah police last year, and it continues to be a problem.

Well, you know, thanks to President Bush, he probably wasnt able to get a job.
Shocking, simply shocking.
I was watching a news program a few months ago where they reported the the theft of an air conditioning compressor for the copper worth all of $200.00.
Even a public skool drop out should be able to figure out that they time and trouble of pulling that one off is a lot more ridiculous than getting a JOB.
I'm shocked that someone would risk electrocution for a few bucks.
