[seamusTX]

On west I-10 in Harris County Tuesday night bogus cops performed a traffic stop of three Mexican men and stole their vehicle and (obviously) everything in it.

No suspects have been identified.

The stolen vehicle was a white 1995 or 1996 Ford Ranger with Virginia license plate XJC-8990.

Hardly worth stealing.

If they had 3 men in a Ranger, there wasn't much room for anything else

[RPB]

Probably needed a pickup truck, instead of their Ford Dually, which they could back into an ATM machine location and haul it off.

Hardly worth stealing.

Maybe they knew something about the "cargo" that you don't.

Could be. You never know.
