US: Thieves Steal 124 Wheels From 34 Chevy Cars Worth $120,000 In A Single Night by obafemee80(m): 10:06pm On May 03, 2019




Thieves managed to steal 124 wheels and tyres from 31 cars,that includes trucks and SUVs like the Chevrolet Tahoe and Silverado to cars and crossovers like the Malibu and Blazer,from a Chevrolet dealership in Slidell, Louisiana in one short night without getting caught.

According to news reports, the police have estimated the value of all the property stolen to be approximately $120,000 or ₦43.2m in Naira .





Cameras at the dealership managed to capture two suspects walking across the dealership lot at 3:00 a.m. to cut locks to the entrance, and soon after a truck follows them in. Just 40 minutes later, the truck was seen leaving the dealership, presumably with the stolen wheels inside.





The crooks defeated locks, alarms, surveillance video, and went as far as to manipulate the exterior lights in the parking lot so they could work in the dark of the night, completely undetected.

The Chevrolet dealership’s owner is offering a $25,000 reward to anyone who provides the information leading to the thieve’s capture.

The photos above tell the story best, as rows of vehicles sit suspended on wood blocks without their wheels and tyres.

It happened in USA. Lemme hear people say "...things like this can't happen in advance countries " again. Sad for the company.Louisiana is a very dangerous place to live though. Hope the cameras worked and the cars were insured.

At least, tires are less traceable and sold with more ease.

Oyenusì people...

Oyenusì is a character played by popular yoruba actor Odunlade Adekola.
In the movie Oyenusì once took his gang to raid a car dealership and steal over 30 cars. And that was just to teach someone a lesson.

Those are professionals in the game judging from the format they employed in carrying out the theft... However it's just a matter of time before they are caught because of the $25k "snitching fee" attached...

This is my guess: the thieves will sell the tyres/wheels and use the money to get high on drugs, booze and women... Then on one of those extreme "highness" days, one among them will loose guard in a beer parlour about the "operation" and the barman will inform the cops, claim his $25k snitching fee and resign.

Americans are by far the real mvps. They wanna thief, they do it like professionals, they wanna scam, they will do it easily. They take planning to a whole noda level but it's too bad they are using it for bad.

Cars most likely might have a GPS tracker... when the clock is ticking , the "fast guys" ain't got time to be snooping around for the tracker.
