Two charged with attacks on four power substations in Washington state

Two men were arrested on New Year’s Eve for allegedly shutting down four Washington state power substations in late December that led to power outages for thousands across Pierce County.

Matthew Greenwood and Jeremy Crahan have been charged with conspiracy to damage energy facilities and Greenwood faces a separate charge of possessing illegal short-barreled rifles.

According to court documents, Greenwood, 32, and Crahan, 40, plotted to knock out power from four substations. While power was out in the first two facilities, the pair broke into a local business to steal from the cash register, Greenwood allegedly told investigators after his arrest.

Though investigators have repeatedly warned in recent months of a rise in threats to critical infrastructure by anti-government groups and domestic extremists, prosecutors did not highlight any association between the two defendants in this case and any such organization.

So they were just common crooks then.

Yes, the left wing fanatics like to portray crimes like this as the result of right wing white supremacist's.

We still don't know who did it in California years ago and the more recent North Carolina incident, so don't be so quick to absolve blame for your side's nutcases.

No lefties involved here.
