PAULDING COUNTY, GA — A man kicking the digital screen on a gas station pump causing the screen to shatter and resulting in several hundred dollars of damage, according to the Paulding Sheriff's Office.

On July 8, a man entered the parking lot of the Exxon, located at 30 Highway 101N Dallas, GA 30157. The man was driving a red in color, newer model Chevy Silverado and was pulling a trailer with two dirt bikes. He attempted to use a card at a pump and when it would not work he went inside to speak with the cashier/store owner.

After several failed attempts to pay due to the man not knowing the PIN number, he exited the store. He then began kicking the digital screen on the pump, causing the screen to shatter and resulting in several hundred dollars of damage.

Anyone who can assist in identifying this individual is asked to call the Criminal Investigation Division or Detective C. McSwain at 770-443-3015.
