2 Salem men sought in theft connection

Two Salem men are sought by Livingston County Sheriff's Department in connection to the theft of copper wire from Pine Bluff Sand and Gravel near Salem and about $2,000 of wire taken from an irrigation pivot,  also near Salem, that belongs to Cook Farms.

The suspects — David Bauer, 48, and Joseph Bauer, 33, a father and son both of Salem — apparently had a collision in  their vehicle and fled the scene prior to Deputy Robert Johnson's arrival. The investigation began Jan. 1.

If anyone knows the whereabouts of these two subjects, they are asked to contact the sheriff's department at (270) 928-2122.
