Terrell Police Department

As we move into the summer travel season, the Terrell Police Department would like to remind residents to remain vigilant and take precautions to help prevent catalytic converter thefts.

Catalytic converters contain valuable metals, making them a target for thieves. While these thefts can occur at any time, vehicles left unattended for extended periods during vacations or travel can be especially vulnerable.

To help protect your vehicle:

• Park in a well-lit area whenever possible.

• If available, park in a garage or secured area.

• Install anti-theft devices or catalytic converter shields.

• Report suspicious activity, especially individuals crawling under parked vehicles or using power tools in parking lots or neighborhoods.

For non-emergency assistance, contact the Terrell Police Department at 469-474-2700. In an emergency, always call 911.

If you see suspicious activity, contact the Terrell Police Department immediately. By working together and remaining alert, we can help deter theft and keep our community safe.
