Oughta work

Catalytic converter thieves look out: The next car you strike could be monitored by the Costa Mesa Police Department. 

On Thursday, police announced on social media that they have noticed “an increase in catalytic converter thefts throughout the city and it continues to be an issue.”

So they're going to put a bait car out there and then post signs saying there's a bait car in the area...

Let me tell you how that's going to work:
They're going to park one cop on the bait car for 3, maybe 4 days with no arrests because they posted those signs. After no activity in that time frame, they'll pull the cop off saying they can't justify wasting the resources of an already shorthanded department due to the coronavirus, but because there weren't any catalytic converters stolen in 3-4 days, the program was a raging success.
