The suspect who identified himself as Kwaku Abu was pursued and arrested at about 2:00am Sunday by some residents of the Saviour community carrying quantities of stolen copper cables packed in a sack.
He, however, claimed he stole the items from Akyem Apedwa and was going to sell them at Koforidua but he did not have money to continue the journey.
He was handcuffed to a building throughout the night and expected to be handed over to Akyem Osiem Police.
Copper cable theft in buildings under construction have become a worrying phenomenon for building owners in parts of the Eastern Region.
A few suspects arrested in the region were established to be electricians by profession.
