THREE arrests have been made after catalytic converters were stolen from vehicles parked at Worcestershire Royal Hospital.

The catalytic converters were taken from two vehicles parked on the hospital car park on October 12, and are the latest in a spate of similar thefts.

Three men, all from Leicestershire, were arrested and bailed.

Chief Inspector Gareth Morgan, said: “We take the theft of catalytic convertibles very seriously and know what a devastating effect these crimes can have on individuals within our community.”

In July we reported a similar theft when catalytic converters were also taken from two vehicles parked on the car park.

And at the time police said they were working with partners at the hospital as there had been catalytic thefts from the car park earlier in the year.
