thefts at ruark bluff

Just read in another 3 or 4 catalytic converts stolen at ruark bluff lot.Cut them off in the afternoon. Anyone else heard anything. Not trying to get something false stated. If so dont know what day.

Newt have not heard a thing, but it seems unlikely in the daytime, so many comming and going and the camp ground just over the cove, man I hope not

I guess if you going to steal something catalytic converters would be better than live power lines like they were trying to steal last week in KC!

when we were down their , over new years, buddy had hes cut off ,been going on for a while

Ok maybe I am kind of dumb here and normally that is the case! But are used catalytic converters worth that much?

Not dumb to ask. They will bring big money at the scrappers.Been going on a long time. They even been cutting them off cars at the dealers. They can get upwards of 75-175 dollars apiece for them. Low lifes need to get a job before someone puts a hole in them.

as much traffic that use to be at that ramp area some one has to have a set of big cahoonies to lay down in a parking lot,and clip/saw/??? or whatever they are using and not make any noise,,, seems odd that no one see's anything,,but what do i know

Well I know it can be done fast with a 19.2 volt Reciprocating Saw. I was in the Hale Store in North Souix City, SD last year and they didn't send me up with all the keys I needed. You know those high dollar round semi trailer pad locks that they say you can't cut thru? I was able to cut thru them in about 10 minutes with my 19.2 Reciprocating saw.

Thanks Hogster1 wow I sure didn't think they were worth that much! I had heard air bags were worth alot of money.

Yeah if it was Mississippi or Louisiana and you found someone messing with your truck or car you could just shoot them even if you didn't have a CCW permit. But in our great state of Missouri if you have a CCW permit you have to let them go. You can't be the one who introduces deadly force first.
