As prices rise, gas thefts more costly for victims
Thieves scaled 6-foot razor-wire-topped fences and cracked locks under the light of Friday's half moon to get at their loot. At current prices, they made off with more than $350 in liquid assets – siphoned straight from the gas tanks of a fleet of trucks.

The thieves took 130 gallons of gasoline out of seven vehicles belonging to Spokane-based Professional Insulation, which is owned by Moria and Paul Martin.
