Falls hotel has 34 tubs stolen

The theft of copper piping has been one that’s ramped up in Niagara County in recent months, but here’s a new twist:

Dozens of bathtubs were reported stolen Monday from the underground parking garage of a Niagara Falls hotel that is being renovated.

The Days Inn on Main Street reported that a total of 34 old tubs that were being stored in plain sight in an underground garage are all missing.

The tubs are valued at approximately $80 apiece.
