WAUSAU, Wis. (WAOW) -- Masked thieves ripped off gasoline from a BP station in Wausau.
Â
It happened at the Merrill Avenue BP on May 18.
Â
Security cameras showed two males wearing ski masks drove up to a pump--filled their car with fuel and then drove off without paying.
Â
The white Ford Fusion the men were in had a cracked windshield, and the license plates had been removed, said Brad Tatro, Marathon County Sheriff's Deputy. Â
Â
Drive-offs like this are why more gas stations are changing the way they do business.
Â
"So many in our area are now going to prepay or pay at the pump only," Tatro said.
