Would you know what a catalytic converter theft sounds like?

Well, this is it. 

Surrey Police has teamed up with Toyota UK to urge anyone who spots someone lying under a car and drilling to call 999. 

Catalytic converters are fitted to exhausts to reduce dangerous gas emissions, but their metals are extremely valuable. 

There were more than 1,000 converter thefts in Surrey in 2020 and the devices can be removed in under a minute.
