From the "WTF" File: Man Accused Of Stinking Up Gas Pump
MEDINA, Ohio -- A gas station owner in Medina, Ohio is apologizing for a bizarre vandalism case.

Steven Herold put glue in credit card machines at two other gas stations and foul-smelling deer repellent on the pumps -- all in an effort to keep customers away.

In court, Herold said he did it because he was frustrated with the gas industry.

He was sentenced to 4 days in jail.

1. So that's why the oil companies collapsed
I've been trying to figure out why the oil companies disappeared seemingly overnight. Now we know the reason. Thank goodness for Steven Herold.

2. I bet Steve didn't think he'd be caught by any surveillance
cameras - you know he owns one of these places himself, so he'd have it all figured out.

3. I'm sure the Oil industry execs found this activity extremely bothersome.
Whereas, the small business owner of the station and the folks who needed gas and wanted to pay with their credit cards appreciated his passionate statement against "the man". :eyes:

4. No wonder my local gas station no longer smells like chrythansimums.
Also explains the lack of deer at the self serve pump.

6. This is one gas station owner vandalizing others so he can get the business
His excuse was the price of gas, but in reality he was just trying to muscle business to his own station.

One of the "Investigative" reporters reported the story this morning.
