Fuel Theft Surge Amid Rising Prices | Sheffield News

Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description

Fuel theft at UK gas stations has surged since the Iran oil crisis, with nearly £200k worth of fuel stolen daily — a 20% jump in incidents and a 50% spike in value due to soaring prices. First-timers are stealing more aggressively, and staff face rising abuse as customers lash out. Retailers are banding together, using tech like facial recognition to track offenders, while smaller independent stations bear the brunt — already paying for the fuel before it’s even pumped.
