If someone comes up to you in a panic asking for a favor, and asks you “not to call the cops”, that MIGHT be a RED FLAG.
A man in Kansas was arrested over the weekend for stealing a truck.
It sounds like the truck was low on gas, and he didn’t want to go to an actual gas station, so he stopped at someone’s house. He asked the person there if they could spare some gas, and asked them “not to call the cops.”
It sounds like they did anyway, because officers showed up, and spotted the truck with a different license plate than it had when it was swiped.
The driver was identified as “Michael Jackson”, but this guy was clearly NOT a “smooth criminal.” He was arrested for possessing stolen property.
