Five people have been arrested in a spate of catalytic converter thefts in Bessemer and surrounding areas.
Bessemer police on Monday announced charges against David Oglesby, 27, Ricky Miller, 30, Amanda King, 32, James Erwin, 38, and Rachel Hyde, 40.
The accused thieves, said Bessemer police Lt. Christian Clemons, are targeting car lots, church vans and any other place where cars are left unattended. Investigators said they don’t believe the suspects were working together as a group, but said the thefts shed light on an ongoing crime in the area. Catalytic converters, which contain platinum, are stolen and sold for scrap, authorities say.

Charges have been upgraded against a Jefferson County man in the death of his 5-week-old son.
Quinton Artez Arnold, 27, of Hueytown, is now charged with capital murder in the death of Kamari Whitt. Arnold was taken back into custody Tuesday by the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force.
He was arrested in Troy and is being held in the Montgomery County Detention Center pending extradition to Jefferson County.
Arnold was initially charged with aggravated child abuse and booked into the Jefferson County Jail on Friday. He was released on $250,000 bond and then apparently fled to southern Alabama.
