Man Charged in Gas Theft

Woodstock Police say $20,000 in Gas Stolen from Armtec

A Woodstock man thought he had the answer to high gas prices.

But 37-year-old Jeffery Jones is facing charges after allegedly stealing over $20,000 in gas over the last few months.


It came to a head on Tuesday night when Woodstock Police were called to Armtec on Dundas St.


A witness spotted a man filling barrels of gas in the back of his pick-up truck.


The truck left the scene, on a flat tire, and allegedly drove through a red light, losing one of the barrels of gas.


Police arrested Jones, and charged him with theft over $5000, possession of stolen property and dangerous driving.


Police are also seeking a second suspect in the case.  Jones will be in court on November 19th.
