A man and woman are accused of working together to steal gas from two Butler County Sheetz stores.
39-year-old Shane Waco Beachem of New Castle and 41-year-old Shelly Roman of Beaver Falls would ask customers at both the Butler Township and Slippery Rock gas stations to borrow their Sheetz card to receive the three cent discount, according to Butler Township Police.
Upon utilizing the victim’s card, the pump would bypass the prepay mechanism. Beachem would then pump the gas and jump in the car. Roman would drive away. The victim would then subsequently be billed for the gas.
Police say they know of at least eight specific thefts of this kind that happened between March and June.
Authorities encourage Sheetz customers to not allow anyone to utilize their Sheetz card.
