Robo y posesión ilegal de convertidores catalíticos usados

Explicación Simple

Robar un convertidor catalítico es como tomar un objeto que no te pertenece con la intención de quedártelo. Si alguien tiene más de un convertidor usado sin permiso, eso también está prohibido.

Es como si alguien entrara a tu casa y se llevara tu bicicleta sin que se lo prestaras. Si tienes más de una bicicleta, necesitas un permiso para tenerlas.

Ejemplo Práctico

Imagina que Juan trabaja en un taller de reparación de autos. Un día, decide llevarse un convertidor catalítico usado de un coche que está reparando sin el consentimiento del dueño. Esto es considerado robo, ya que Juan intenta quedarse con algo que no le pertenece.
