Catalytic converters have been stolen around Piqua and Sidney Ohio.
The thieves were identified by a store receipt found at one of the crime scenes.
Home Depot is where they had bought the saw blades they used to steal the converters.
The receipt includes the exact time of purchase, and which register did the checkout.
The store provided police with surveillance video for that register at the time of purchase.
The thieves were identified from the video of them
buying the saw blades they used to steal the converters.
They have now been arrested.
I think it's time we adopt Muslim-style punishments and cut off body parts.
:cursing:

Nope, here shitlib shitholes no cash bail.
The crooks were bound to be caught a different way, anyway.
I don't know about other states, but in Ohio,
all of the recycling centers require people to
show their driver's license or state ID card
to sell them anything other than cans.
They make a photocopy of it.
That way, when someone comes in selling a dozen catalytic converters,
and recently, a dozen catalytic converters have been stolen,
it's pretty easy to figure out what's going on.
This policy exists because so many people were stealing
copper plumbing and aluminum siding from vacant houses.

That works when the recycle place is honest.
