Cheyenne Police Seeing Uptick in Catalytic Converter Thefts
Detective Bureau Lieutenant Rob Dafoe says the thefts are happening both day and night. Thieves will crawl underneath the vehicle and cut the converter out with a saw, said Dafoe. Some have gotten so good at removing them, that it can be done within minutes. In most cases, you won t know this has happened until you start your car, he added. You will hear excessive noise that amplifies as you push the gas pedal.
Catalytic converters, which are part of a vehicle s exhaust system, are most sought out by thieves because they contain precious metals and can be sold for scrap.
