On Wednesday 5th January at 8.28pm in Harriet Mews (off Leigh Place) 3 men jacked up a car and cut off it's catalytic convertor.  A car drove into the cul de sac and turned around, the men got out as the driver drove out of the road (with car lights off) and waited in Leigh Place.  The men took exactly 30 seconds to lift the car up and remove the catalytic convertor!  The BMW's alarm was going off and yet this did not perturb the thieves.  The 3 men made off on foot to get into the waiting car.
