Thieves!

Mike C. told me about an incident at the Oshawa GO lot today where a guy had his catalytic converter sawed off of his Oldsmobile Bravada's exhaust pipe.

That's right. Some a-hole literally crawled under this man's car and sawed off a crucial piece of his car's exhaust system costing the owner over $1200 for a new one.

I've warned you all that criminals will siphon gas from your parked car and now they will remove car parts to sell them for scrap.

Beware. There are jerks in our midst.

Maybe CCTV in the parking areas is required...

CCTV at Oshawa! LOL. Who watches the camera? The person reading her book?

According to Mike removing the catalytic converter takes less than five minutes, and the tools are very quiet...
WTF??? all we used to worry about was scratches and dings! Now the parking lots are part-lots for criminals!

They caught two guys doing this at the Ajax lot this week -- hopefully it's the same asses and they can enjoy some nice jail time.

News tonight has it charges have been laid against two cousins, 408 charges if memory serves. WOW!

Just imagine the replacement cost of that many catalytic converters, parts , labour and of course tax on 300-900$ each!
