Smart crooks in Haarlem make off with car seats

Stealing hub caps and car badges is passé. Stealing entire wheels is daring, but hey, every baddy in town’s doin’ it and so it’s not cool anymore. Time to think out-of-the-box: stealing Renault Espace seats.

Some smart crooks decided to steal a large number of seats from a car dealer. All the cars just happened to have pierced radiators and ended up in the same place for repairs. Five seats fit in an Espace and they usually come with three. The police in Haarlem said that second hand seats go for 300 euro a piece. You do the math.
