Mounties in Burnaby say two women have been arrested after stealing a catalytic converter from a van in a parking lot in the area of Brighton Avenue and Lougheed Highway.
They say that on January 22nd, officers responded to reports of the women underneath the vehicle, but the pair left the scene before they arrived.
The R-C-M-P say the 9-1-1 caller was able to describe their car and the women were arrested a short time later with several catalytic converters in their possession.
Police say the 38-year-old from Surrey and 39-year-old from Abbotsford are expected to face numerous charges but the investigation is ongoing.
