Report
The operator of one of their trucks pulled up to the gas pumps and proceeded to go get ice, opened two bottles and swished the cooler out and then dumped the water in the cooler out on the ground in front of the gas pumps so that anyone who wanted to get gas would have to deal with the wet pavement. This man did not get gasoline; he blocked both sets of gas pumps in that row. When he exited the pump area, he took a sharp left in front of cars trying to exit the grocery store aisle.
