bloody hell, 1000 litres? that's gotta be a full tanker truck, who's driving around Tarras stealing fuel?
nah not just a joyride, that's professional. inside job maybe?
typical, probably some crackhead after the copper or something. hope they catch the muppet.
lol yeah nah they'll 'investigate' and nothing will happen. classic
bet the police will be real busy with this one... in between donuts 🍩
facts. needs to be actual consequences not a warning

ffs, fuel prices are already a joke and now we got thieves taking the piss. need more than a slap on the wrist when they catch em.
on the bright side, at least they didn't take the whole business 😂 but seriously, 1000L is a lot of diesel
wait, is Tarras near Queenstown? I'm planning a trip and need fuel stops. is this a common thing there? asking for a friend lol
a bit south of Queenstown actually. but nah this is rare, just a weird crime. you'll be fine for fuel stops, heaps of places
poor Tarras locals, that's a tight community. hope insurance covers it and the thief gets found
yeah I feel for them, small towns look out for each other. hope they get sorted
mate I work in fuel logistics and a 1000L theft means someone had a tanker or pumped it into drums overnight. this was planned, not some joyride.
could be but usually inside jobs are smaller amounts. 1000L screams someone with a truck and contacts to offload it quick
