Thefts of catalytic converters

Ali

Anyone experienced this happening have heard there have been some thefts around the Woodstock Road area?

We had ours stolen from Birnam Road on the 19th November and friends had theirs taken from Oakfield road about 6 months ago. It's rife all over North London, according to the police.

fwiw

Birnam Road always reminds me of the film High Plains Drifter.

Another active wave around Crouch End and Stroud Green. Last night at 10pm three guys removed ours in Darren Close despite being challenged by a neighbour. Video identifying them with the police: three white guys with London/southern English accents, all wearing covid masks, carrying a large jack. Maybe the same group that drives a black Volvo; they seem to park away from the scene and thus walk down the road with the converter.
