Thieves stole catalytic converters from three vans used by the senior center in Wallingford, according to the business manager.
One van has been temporarily fixed for use during the town's Thanksgiving celebration Friday. A second may also be repaired today, officials said.
Damaged vans have been taken to the public works garage. The cost to repair three vehicles totals about $5,000, according to the business manager.
Town officials said the senior center is not equipped with surveillance cameras.
It's not clear if police are following leads.
