After witnessing the theft of a catalytic converter, this is no "new" thing but as of late, this lawless crime is on the increase. Many perpetrators have audacity to steal in broad daylight, bearing arms. The crime affects many households that are already struggling during these challenging times, particularly when they depend on a vehicle which will need expensive repairs. Something needs to be done!
