HERMITAGE, Pa.— A Beaver County woman has been arrested in connection with the theft of a 5-ton steel coil and two boxes of copper fittings from Chambers Steel, police said this morning.

North Sewickley police stopped Linda Lee Boots, of Koppel, Pa., in a pickup truck around 3 a.m. Thursday. The right side of the bed was crushed, and the rear tires were flat due to the weight of the steel.

Boots, 40, was arrested and charged with receiving stolen property. The truck and stolen property were impounded.
