Fiber-optic network vandalized SkyLine/SkyBest offering reward

Last Updated on April 3, 2025 3:11 pm

SkyLine/SkyBest is offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for vandalizing its fiber-optic network.

Early Thursday morning, April 3, a fiber cable was deliberately cut along Railroad Grade Road in Fleetwood—just as the community works to recover from Hurricane Helene. These reckless acts only add to the challenges, disrupting essential connectivity.

SkyLine is committed to providing reliable broadband and working quickly to restore service. Anyone with information about this vandalism is urged to call the Ashe County Sheriff’s Office or the SkyLine/SkyBest tip line at 1-888-752-4447 or 336-876-6559.

Again, a $5,000 reward is available only for tips that lead to an arrest and conviction.
