RENO, Nev. (AP) — Secret Witness is offering a $1,000 reward for information into the theft of two huge spools of copper wire from a construction site on the University of Nevada, Reno campus.

UNR police say the construction zone in the married student's housing area was burglarized Saturday.

Officials say one spool weighed about 3,000 pounds and the other weighed 1,200 pounds.

The combined loss is estimated at more than $22,000.
