Man Caught Stealing Grease from Burger King
Morning Edition, April 4, 2008 ·

Rising prices of commodities like grain and fuel are sparking an increase in crime.

Thefts of these increasingly precious goods are being reported all over the world.

But in California this week, commodity crime took a new turn. A manager at a Burger King spotted a man
siphoning oil from a storage tank outside the restaurant — the kind of oil used to make burgers and fries.

Police suspect he may have intended to recycle the oil at a refinery, where it could be turned into biofuel.
