A midwife at Queen's Medical Centre was left out of pocket after having her catalytic converter stolen. Tracey Squires, 58, of Mapperley, has been a midwife for more than 25 years and is now unable to make visits to her patients due to the theft.
Shortly after 2:30am on Thursday, June 2, the catalytic converter was stolen off Tracey's Honda. At the time, it was parked across the street from her home. She didn't realise anything was wrong until the morning when she went to start her car.
Tracey said: "I went to get in the car and there was an awful noise coming from the exhaust. I thought some was wrong with the exhaust, but the exhaust was intact, it was like when someone takes the silencer off a motorbike, it was like the car version of that."
