Man Wanted For Warminster Gas Station Fraud: Police
The man allegedly used a 'disputed' credit card to fill a hidden tank in the back of his truck. He left with over $600 worth of diesel fuel.
WARMINSTER, PA — The Warminster Township police department is currently searching for a man who allegedly stole $600 worth of diesel fuel from a local gas station on Friday.
According to police, the person-of-interest went to the Delta Gas Station, located at 288 York York Rd., and pumped about $600 worth of diesel into a hidden gas tank in the back of his car. The card he used for the purchases "was later disputed", according to a statement from the police department.
The only part of the hidden tank that was visible on security footage was the fill pipes sticking out of the top; the rest was covered by a bed cover. The truck used in the allegedly fraudulent purchase is also missing the fuel door.
