man steals 45,000 litres of petrol
 

Ok - can't find a link - was just on the news.

This guy fitted out his van with a 1000 litre tank and would visit his local petrol station late at night and steal fuel.

He managed to steal 45,000 litres in a 4 week period!

The best part is he lived 200 metres from said petrol station!

ahahaha some people are unbelieveable

was doing pretty good until he got caught!

how can ya steal fuel ? it's open at nights just like that or what ? ermzz

let me guess, it happend in the us :)

apparently the fuel wasn't locked at night. weird

and it was in Australia

45,000 liters? I wonder where he kept it. Did he have his own gas station?

pretty sure he sold it - nfi how - will post a link as soon as it's online

It only takes a guts to steal something; and this guy surely have bunch of it.

I guarantee he had a friend who owns some fuel station that he sold it too. Pretty funny though, the idiot could of visited a few different stations though.

By the way here is a link to a news story on it:

http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems...9/s1463460.htm

Police are investigating the theft of about 45,000 litres of fuel from a service station in Sydney's west.

Police last night arrested a 36-year-old man who has been questioned about the theft of 1,000 litres of diesel from a Shell service station on Windsor Road.

The rest of the fuel is yet to be accounted for.

Detective Inspector Gary Hutchen says police believe hoses, a pump and a home-made tank that were fitted inside a van were used to steal fuel from underground storage tanks.

"At the present time the man is assisting with police inquiries and he's expected to be charged later today with the theft of approximately 1,000 [litres]," he said.

"The van matching the description seen at the service station was seen by police and the vehicle contained what appeared to be a home-made tank in the rear, with a large quantity of liquid believed to be diesel."
