Creedmoor police search for three people accused of stealing catalytic converters

Creedmoor police are looking for three people suspected of stealing two catalytic converters.

A catalytic converter is an exhaust emission control device that converts toxic gases and pollutants in exhaust gas from an internal combustion engine into less-toxic pollutants.

Surveillance footage showed two men removing one of the converters from Wood Shapes, a commercial architectural millwork company at 518 North Durham Ave. The footage showed the men removing the converter from a work truck using a cordless saw.

Surveillance video also showed a third person driving a Chevrolet Malibu with a light brown or beige color with chrome wheels. The footage shows the three people driving away from the area.

Anyone with information on this case or similar cases is asked to call the Creedmoor Police Department at 919-528-1515 or call Granville County CrimeStoppers at 919-693-3100. A reward of up to $2,000 is offered for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the suspect.

Callers do not have to give their names or personal information. All callers are kept anonymous.
