ABSTRACT:
An anti-theft device including a shaft divided into first and second brackets and a locking mechanism. First bracket defines first300aand second320aedges, second bracket defines first300band second320bedges. First320aand second320bedges are hingedly connected such that first and second brackets can be opened or closed. Edge300bincludes at least one inner-flange and a locking tab. First bracket260aincludes sidewall340a. Locking tab and sidewall340arespectively define apertures440and390. Apertures440and390are aligned upon closing the first and second brackets. When the first and second brackets are in a closed configuration, the locking mechanism is in operable communication with apertures440and390such that the locking mechanism is capable of reversibly locking first and second brackets together, and wherein the at least one inner flange prevents illicit tampering of the locking mechanism.
