A few weeks ago, I spotted the above car by the Owl’s Nest on Gates Road. As you can see, it was missing its wheels.
I sent the photo plus the vehicle’s license plate information to the Metropolitan Police Department. “We are looking into it,” I was told.
How frequently do wheels get stolen? Popville.com headlines each DC incident as a “Helluva Way to Wake Up,” and it has posted hundreds (perhaps thousands?) of them.
In 2022, Popville published advice from MPD on preventing this from happening.
