Catalytic converter thefts are still rising in North Texas, as thieves target the metals inside. But one repeat victim decided to fight back - literally.
His van had been targeted for its catalytic converter three times over the past year. He was determined there wouldn't be a fourth. So he installed cameras and set up deterrents under the van outside of his Design District studio, where he lives and works as a photographer.
"So he couldn't get out, so I was able to beat him for a while. Then I saw him start grabbing his bag, and I started beating his hand," he said."He had saws, wire cutters, masks, gloves, knives," Hayner said.
