A 41-year-old man and a 37-year-old woman were arrested Tuesday by Westlake police for catalytic converter thefts at several local businesses.
According to Westlake police, the first theft happened on Feb. 17 at a business in the 29000 block of Clemens Road. Police said security camera footage of the incident showed two people in a four-door sedan that was missing hubcaps go onto the property. One person then got out and cut the catalytic converter off a nearby vehicle. The theft took less than three minutes.
Also on Tuesday, a business on Sperry Drive also reported having a catalytic converter stolen off a vehicle parked on the property Monday night. Inside the car, police said they found a reciprocating saw and several extra blades. Police also found marijuana and heroin in the vehicle.
