They’re the single most expensive part of a vehicle, and they’ve been the target of thieves in Sheboygan County throughout 2022.
The item is the catalytic converter that’s under your car or truck, and it can be worth anywhere from $300 to $1,500 at a scrapyard due to the precious metals it contains.
Sheboygan County Sheriff Cory Roeseler says law enforcement agencies have been dealing with these thefts throughout the City and County of Sheboygan all year, and it’s believed that multiple individuals are involved. Law enforcement is asking anyone who has information on who’s responsible to share that information with them through Sheboygan Countywide Crimestoppers.
Researchers say the top three most-targeted vehicles for catalytic converter theft nationwide is any Ford F-Series pickup truck, Honda Accords through model year 2020, and the 2007-17 Jeep Patriot.
Sheboygan Countywide Crimestoppers is asking that if you have information about these or any other crimes, please leave a web tip at www.cufthem.com, use the “P3 Tips” app on your Android or iOS device or call Crime Stoppers at 1-877-CUF-THEM (1-877-283-8436).
