Copper has been stolen on several occasions on the Otaniemi campus during the past few days and weeks. The thefts have taken place in the area south of Kemistintie 1 and the Undergraduate Centre (Otakaari 1). The thieves have stolen, for example, wall panels, copper rain gutters and copper railings by removing them from building walls and roofs.

At a quick glance, passers-by may have regarded these thieves as regular workers doing normal construction work. The thieves have been active during the evening, and they have not been startled by any passers-by. If you notice any suspicious behaviour or “construction workers” moving around the campus during the evening, please call Jukka-Pekka Salmisto (Head of Property and Services, Aalto CRE) phone: +358 40 527 1497. This allows the information to be forwarded quickly to the security guards who are on the campus 24/7, and who can get there the fastest. The guard is in contact with the police if necessary.
