Bait Trailers Are Everywhere

Just when thieves thought they had found another way to rip off the public by stealing trailers and selling them privately through ads and on internet sites, the Integrated Municipal Provincial Auto Crime Team (IMPACT) launched Bait Trailers as part of their 'Bait' fleet.

A host of different types of trailers are now armed with hidden GPS technology and will be planted throughout British Columbia just waiting to be stolen. They will look just like any other trailer and will come in many makes, models, sizes and colours.

This is a video of the very first Bait Trailer arrest. Not only were the suspects being monitored by GPS, the Air One helicopter with infrared cameras was tracking them from the sky.

@CommieKid These people would be stealing trailers anyway, it's not like the cops force someone to be a thief. Thefts like this end up costing taxpayers tons of money so it's best to at least deter thieves by letting them know that their targets might be rigged. The helicopter seems a bit overboard, though.

@CommieKid you must not own a trailer. They can cost around $10 000 and if you're a contractor you may have another $10 000 worth of equipment in it.

Why are the police wasting manpower, money, and deploying helicopters just to prevent a fucking trailer theft? What a waste this country has become. Instead of preventing crime they are creating it.

If this video is legit and the TRAILER was the bait, how did you get the footage from inside the thief's car? Or are we supposed to believe that this poor guy stole a baitCAR and then went on to win the lottery by stealing a baitTRAILER with it?!?
