ABSTRACT:
A semi-trailer anti-theft device or apparatus is provided in the form of a shield which extends over and substantially encloses both the latch handle on the cargo door of a semi-trailer and the padlock associated with the latch. The shield includes an elongated front panel which extends across the latch handle. At a first end of the front panel on the rear side thereof is a forked member which can be inserted around the pivot pin of the latch handle and then the shield can be swung down about the pivot pin so as to bring the front panel of the shield into covering alignment with the latch handle. A second end of the front panel is in the form of a padlock guard having a rearwardly extending flange which extends over the top of the padlock and a lock plate protecting the face of the padlock. Also a locking web extends rearwardly from the second end of the front panel below the flange and has an aperture through which the padlock bight extends.
