Beware petrol thieves

South Wales Police are warning petrol stations and other organisations which hold large quantities of fuel to be aware that due to increases in fuel prices many people are resorting to ciphering or stealing fuel.

Acting Inspector Steve Trigg said, “As petrol and diesel prices are increasing there has been a trend towards ciphering and stealing fuel from businesses as this has now become an expensive commodity.

“I ask all businesses which store or sell fuel to make sure that CCTV is fully operational and that barrels are hidden out of sight from the general public.

“Minimising the opportunities for theft will justifiably put people off committing the crime.”
