Automotive catalytic converters contain a valuable metal, much more valuable than aluminum.
In addition, catalytic converters are easy to detach, and feature no identification numbers making them untracable to specific vehicles.
Tose factors also make the devices attractive to thieves, who have been crawling under work trucks when their businesses were closed.
There have been several such cases in the city and the county.
Evansville Police say if you know anyone who might be engaged in such activity, please give them a call.
