A Rutherford County man was killed while trying to steal some car parts.
According to Cleveland County police, Daniel Yount and Dawn Bradley climbed a fence at a scrap yard located along Highway 74. Their intention was to steal car parts. The two were trying to steal a catalytic converter from a car. The wet conditions caused by the rain made the car slip, falling on Yount, killing him.
Bradley is being charged with attempted larceny and trespassing.
