Gas Thief Drives Off a 4th Time

Man who has stolen gas from Jetz previously struck again, using altered license plates to get away

Muskego Police were again called to the Jetz gas station on Dec. 16 around noon in response to a gas drive-off.

An employee told police a white man in his 20s, with dark hair and wearing a gray sweatshirt with the hood up and dark pants had put $53.66 worth of gas in his vehicle and left without paying. The vehicle was described as a light blue Ford Windstar according to reports, but the license plate was altered, making the vehicle untraceable.

Police and employees at Jetz believe this is the same man seen driving away from the pumps in November, as well as twice in one week in September. The September incidents involved a maroon Dodge van, but video taken showed similarities in the suspect's decsription.
