Chennai:01.10.2019

A man who had parked his month-old car outside his home at TVS Colony, Anna Nagar woke up on Monday morning to find that someone had stolen all four wheels.

The JJ Nagar police said Mahesh Babu, who works in a private firm, usually parked his Maruti Ciaz for the night at a relative’s house two streets away, but had left it on the road outside his home as he planned to visit a temple early on Monday to get puja done for the car.

Police suspect that someone well-versed with automobile mechanics was behind the theft as they managed to unbolt all four wheels and no one heard a thing even though it is a residential locality.

Mahesh doesn’t have space within his house’s compound to park the car and usually did not park outside his home. On Monday morning, there were a few stones beside the car, whose body was resting on the road.

Police were scanning CCTV camera footage to identify the culprits. Police said that it could have been the handiwork of a gang as it would be difficult for one person to carry away all four wheels at once. They are also checking on autorickshaws moving in the locality at the time of the incident.

Several residents of TVS Colony said that two years ago, miscreants escaped with a wheel from a car parked on the roadside. They appealed to police to intensify patrolling in the area.
