GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. â Thereâs a part in your car â in everyoneâs car â that in some cases can be worth more than the value of the car itself. And thieves want it.
According to Sgt. Dan Adams with Grand Rapids Police, theyâre getting them. Sgt. Adams says thefts of catalytic converters were way up in Kent County recently.
âItâs one of those things that we always seem to be fighting one way or another,â he said Tuesday. âIt causes around a thousand dollarsâ worth of damage to have it replaced.â
