I thought I grew up in some kind of super safe, crime-free town. Turns out, the Mayberry area is as riddled with crime as some of our nation’s largest cities. I mean, the Dougherty pop machine is stolen (and, guys, I have some seriously amazing updates on that), and now Thornville experiences two gas theft scares.

Sounds like people are filling up their gas tanks and then driving off before paying. I mean, I’m not sure how this is possible since one usually has to pay before being able to pump gas, but who knows what type of equipment we’re working with at the Thornville gas station… both were a potential “gas-n-go,” a theft maneuver in which a driver fills up their tank and evades the scene before paying for their purchase. Honestly, this article is written in such a confusing way that I can’t even begin to describe it to you, but the bottom line is that two people were thought to have driven off without paying for their gas. However, both bills were fully paid and one of the drivers is believed to have left in error. 

Basically, we’re reaching for news. Which is obvious based on last week’s front page article about a sock in a water line.
