Thefts of gas from city pumps



Plainfielders feeling a pinch in their wallets at the gas pump these days may commiserate with Newark officials, who are charging five city employees with treating themselves and friends to free fill-ups on the city at the gas pumps used for city vehicles.

To my knowledge, no Plainfield city employees have been guilty of filling up their personal vehicles at the DPW's city gas pump.

Might not be able to say the same for politically connected private citizens, though. Word in the grapevine last week was that one such non-employee was spotted filling up at the city's expense recently.

The way gas prices are heading, this might no longer be considered PETTY THEFT.

Just a word to the wise.
