Wheels Stolen From 48 New Vehicles at East Texas Car Dealer

Police are trying to determine who stole the wheels from 48 new vehicles at an East Texas car dealership.

Tyler police estimate thieves made off with about $250,000 worth of tires and wheels, leaving the vehicles up on blocks.

Police are examining surveillance video showing several suspects on the grounds of Peltier Chevrolet around 1 a.m. Sunday. The suspects entered the fenced dealership at the rear of the business.

A Tyler police statement Monday said investigators believe the thieves may be part of a ring targeting car dealers across Texas.
