Ashley Minyard said she spotted something hanging from the bottom of her Chevy Tahoe that just didn't look right. She found a three-foot piece of metal rebar pushed through her gas tank, puncturing the bottom

A guy around here that was caught about a month ago stealing gas from cars/trucks...
The guy had a hose in is truck that he tossed out his window and put into cars gas tanks that he had pulled along side of, flipped the switch on his dash that turned on a pump under his truck, and filled his tank up. The end of the hose went right into his gas tank!! He did not even have to get out of his truck!
here's the link for it

Thats messed up for sure. Sometimes I can kinda see why people would want to do this kinda stuff though.
They should do a little research, and at least go rip off some big head honcho oil company's fuel tank, instead of the average joe that has to pay it!
