North Hills resident Jolayne Gordillo, a victim of thieves drilling into the gas tank of her Dodge Ram, says the cost of repairs could run her family around $2,000.
Drivers in Fontana and other areas are on the lookout since thieves have begun drilling holes in gas tanks in order steal fuel.
"I smelled gas and I was like, 'Where is that coming from?' I didn't think anything of it until looked under my car and I was like, 'They're getting our gas,' and there was a water bottle with gas in it underneath," said Jolayne Gordillo, a victim of gas theft. "Just the tank itself from the Dodge dealer is $1,500," Gordillo explained."Labor is another $500 most likely. So, around $2,000."
"It's not just a Fontana problem. It's a statewide problem," said Fontana Police Officer Steve Reed. "It's been a substantial increase since gas prices went up, since the beginning of the year."
