Press release from the Concord Police Department: February 24, 2022 Concord-The Concord Police Department has recently received reports of catalytic converters being stolen from vehicles. These types of thefts are occurring throughout the country due to the increasing prices of precious metals which are contained within the catalytic converters.

It takes less than thirty seconds for a thief to cut a catalytic converter from the bottom of a vehicle.
