Catalytic converter theft: South Yorkshire Police partners with Halfords to clam...

Those involved fled the scene in a car with the partial registration number PL08.

A passing off-duty police officer witnesses the incident and attempted to intervene but the thieves drove their car towards the officer, who was forced to jump out of the way.

Catalytic converters are stolen from the exhaust systems of cars because of their scrap metal value.

Anyone with information should call South Yorkshire Police on 101 and quote investigation number 14/158225/21.
