COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -
A restroom rip-off in central Ohio has atoiutomatic flushers disappearing from the bathrooms at restaurants and other businesses.
Police say it's been happening in at least a couple Columbus suburbs. Investigators don't know if the thefts are related.

He says safeguards are needed because the flushers can be costly to repair.
