Summerville Police were called to a Favor Street address this past week after a businessman reported a theft.  When a responding officer arrived on the scene and spoke with the complainant, he told them that he returned to work after being out of town for a few days and found that several of the vehicles he had purchased for resale had been tampered with.  Scott Ballard told the officer that someone had stolen several catalytic converters off the vehicles.  The incident was turned over to an investigator with the Summerville Police Department.  The incident was reported on Wednesday of last week.
