Summer is here and gas prices are on the rise. The recent surge in prices at the pump has given rise to numerous reports of crime in and around the Philadelphia area. Brazen criminals have siphoned gas from unsuspecting motorists who park their cars in mall parking lots or train stations. There have even been a few cases where, unthwarted by locking gas caps, criminals have actually punctured the gas tank to gain access to fuel. Why go to the trouble of draining gas though, when there are so many people who still leave their cars unlocked or unattended. Good old fashioned grand theft auto is still very much a concern for motorists.
