SILVER LAKE, LOS ANGELES (KABC) — Police are looking for a thief who targeted a Silver Lake church twice and allegedly stole copper piping. Now the church is struggling to conduct their work.
Security footage shows a thief turning off the water at Silver Lake Community Church just before the copper pipes on the roof went missing.
The thief targeted the church twice in June. Those missing pipes are now impacting the work of the church.
Pastor Kyle Joachim said they use the space to help serve the community.
“Because the water has been shut off, we haven’t been able to do a lot of the stuff that we do to help people,” Joachim said.
The church feeds more than 100 people weekly with hot meals and food pantry items.
They also offer free showers…
