Summary

A 29-year-old man, Dylan Hyland, faces 26 charges for allegedly stealing copper cables from EV charging stations across New South Wales’ Central Coast and Newcastle between June 12–30. Police say his distinctive white Ford Ranger was used to transport stolen parts, and he was arrested in Kahibah with 17 charging plugs, stripped cables, cutting tools, and a taser. Despite his lawyer’s plea for bail—highlighting his community ties and upcoming surgery—the court denied release, citing him as a significant risk to public safety. His case returns to court Wednesday as the investigation continues, underscoring the growing threat to EV infrastructure.
