## Resource

Copper cable worth $1.6 million stolen from the Demerara River Bridge between Aug 23 and Sept 1, 2026 — powering its iconic holiday LED lights. The theft went unnoticed until an engineer tried to light up the bridge for Independence Day on Aug 31 and only half the lights worked. Authorities are reviewing security footage to track down the brazen thieves, with major implications for national celebrations and infrastructure security.
