Thieves in North Bay are causing chaos by slicing copper wires from telephone poles, disrupting phone and internet services in Western Sonoma County. The latest incidents occurred on April 25, 2026, near Bodega Highway and Highway 116, affecting residents like those near the Wild Poppy Café. AT&T repair crews are working tirelessly to restore landline services, but delays have stretched into a full week for some.
