Multiple Catalytic Converters Stolen: The Blotter

The following information was provided by the Twinsburg Police Department. An arrest does not indicate a conviction.

 

On Jan. 31 a Darrow Road woman called Twinsburg Police and reported that a catalytic converter was removed from her car overnight. She stated that she parked her car in the parking area of 9209 Darrow Rd. the night before and when she started it up next it sounded louder. She told police she looked under her car and saw that someone had cut the catalytic converter from the vehicles exhaust system.

The same night, an Arbor Glen Drive man reported his girlfriend's car was missing its catalytic converter. The owner said the car was parked in the back parking lot the night before. She found the converter was missing the next day.

A few days later, on Feb. 2, officers responded to Darrow Park Drive for another theft of a catalytic convertor. The victim said that sometime the day before,  someone cut the catalytic convertor off her car, which was parked outside her apartment.
