The following information is from the Concord Police Dept.:
On February 10 at approximately 3:30 am, a resident in the north area of Concord saw several suspects attempting to steal the catalytic converter from his car. The suspects fled and the victim followed them.
At one point, the suspects began shooting at the victim and struck his car.
Officers arrived and chased the suspect car, but the suspects were able to get away.
The case is under investigation.
Anyone with information regarding this case may contact Detective Kevin Giacoletto with CPD’s Major Crime Unit at 925-671-3040.
A mostly peaceful auto repair, almost completed. I would like to know how the suspects were able to get away from the police, but am afraid to ask.
Disturbing to think he would follow them unless he was on the phone with 911 and kept a distance.
How is that disturbing? Vigilante justice is apparently the only justice we will get. Why would you say that protecting our own property and rights is disturbing when these jerks are NEVER caught? Sounds like YOU are the problem.
A wise man once said, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men should do nothing.”
These criminals (a small fraction of our community) operate with impunity because good people (the overwhelming majority) are afraid to stand up to them.
Think what we could do if everybody were willing to take action.
“”Oh, please”” You seem to have a reading comprehension problem. If you think chasing those guys and getting close enough for them to shoot at you is a good idea more power to you. Best of luck.
“Chicken Little” Most people are not capable of sticking up for themselves. We will always have crime but not this amount of crime. The reason is crime at the present time pays. With no bail and light sentencing the perps have nothing to lose. Another problem is liability laws. Stores are afraid to have their guards act. The police are afraid of being sued. This is only the public’s fault for electing the woke but It is the fault of the media for putting out lies. People have no clue who they are voting for starting with Joe Biden.
R- Maybe YOU should read what YOU wrote. Reading comprehanion? Sounds like you need a refresher. I would never find someone taking a stand “disturbing.” THIS is also why we need to allow law-abiding folks to get concealed carry permits.
Get tough on crime.
Convict criminals and make the sentences harsh.
Criminals relinquish all rights and privileges when the crime is committed.
Criminals need to fear the law and fear the punishment.
Agreed!
We need to really give people harsh sentences in jail.
Make it short and horrible though.
Maybe like one year in jail but no TV no gyms no fringe benefits and make them work hard 6 days a week for 10 hours a day.
No free dental work no free sex changes just hard hard time. Criminals would not want to go back to that. Don’t keep them for years just one year of near torture would do it.
.
FIGHT CRIME!
.
SHOOT BACK!!!
.
It appears that many here think that shooting out in the street is a good idea. That would be until a kid sleeping in his room is shot dead by a stray bullet from you or the perp. Do what you want in your house if you are capable but don’t put gunfire out in the hood.
Was value of catalytic converter less than $950 ? ? ?
Liberals seem unable to fathom there are people in this world with zero empathy that are straight up predacious upon society.
If there is no threat of lengthy incarceration,
there is NO deterrence of criminal behavior.
+1
…attempting to steal the catalytic converter
‘the suspects were able to get away’.

They went fast.
So pathetic that our liberal laws have destroyed Contra Costa Co.

How about this one:
Sarge- discontinue pursuit because if you hurt the suspect, Becton will put you in jail.
108RS
If caught they should have a hand removed. If caught again remove then remove the other hand.
I’ve always thought that we underuse wood chippers. They work in Fargo, why not Claycord?
Make it a law the the State will be the only way to recycle cat converters with record keeping.
@Tim- Enforcement needs to be applied directly to the recycle businesses that except these items. Eliminate the money… I would rather live in a community where recycling items are gifted to projects we support then, recycling centers in our neighborhoods encouraging the collection and redistribution of garbage while we sleep.
ah come on…if the cat converter is only worth 949. bucks….
is this is a after market cat?, a place give me a price for $1900
and this is aftermarket one, and my check engine light still will be on do my car won’t pass smog, yea I can go the route but is just a waist of money,I wan put the stock,
