The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “Thieves with ‘baseball bat’ steal catalytic converter in front of car owner” – below is their description.
Three brazen thieves removed a motorist’s catalytic converter as he watched, banging on the window to try and scare them off.
But instead of fleeing one of the masked trio just waved what looks like a baseball bat at him as his pal continue their theft.
The gang are then seen taking the car piece and their jack away before sauntering into their car and driving off.
The video shows one man under the car while two men keep watch. Each man is well covered making them hard to identify.
After seeing the thieves removing the car part from his Toyota Prius, the owner knocks on a window from inside his house, but the group doesn’t stop.
