(WJZ) BALTIMORE WJZ.COM has learned a fuel truck has been stolen from a gas station in South Baltimore.
Officials say that the truck operator was refilling the gas tubes at a gas station on 3100 block of Vera Street, when a black male, wearing a blue jump suit, got into the driver seat and took off.
Police say the driver tried to get back in the truck, but the suspect pointed a gun at the driver and told him to get out of the truck.
The truck is described as a 1997 Peterbilt with dark wood. On one side it says "Baltimore Tank Lines." There is also a silver trailer attached to the truck.
The truck's Maryland license plate is 436-F45 and the tanker has Maine license plate 126-8185.
There may be some front end damage to the truck, because the suspect struck a fence on his way out.
The truck was last seen heading toward Interstate 95.
The driver was not injured.
Its pretty hard to get something that big into Fort Meade. They have a sufficient barrier system, IMHO.
If it turns out that he did this in protest of gas prices, are you going to put the thread back?:’)
In my 7 years in the Navy I never sunk a ship.
If not, why not? After all, it's bigger than Britney.

“But with Fort Meade (home of the NSA) just 15 miles down the road one must at least entertain the possibility that something really bad might happen.”
What is the truck hijacker gonna do, blow up a couple of fences?
The good stuff is away from the common man....
Or just park it in the barn. Will keep you supplied for years.LOL.
I bet they have a warehouse in one of the industrial areas in the baltimore area where they can unload the fuel and sell it, or just save money by unloading it and then filling up their own cars
Maybe he’ll blow up Philadelphia
Yup,checked it out on Mapquest.
man, if anything, the MD state police are road hawks-—I have the traffic tickets to prove it.
no hijacker worth his salt would attempt to take a truck through delaware. there are far too many toll roads
Bite your tongue. Have you not seen Britney's 27 point plan to combat radical Islam in South Asia (Pakistan)? Leave Britney alone!

LOL. Now, there is some real heads-up reporting.
Baltimore Tank Lines On September 27, 2000, a 75,000 pound Baltimore Tank Liners tanker hauling 7,000 gallons of Number 2 fuel oil crossed over the center line of Route 17 in Fauquier County, and struck the Plaintiff's car head-on. The tanker driver had taken his eyes off the road to adjust his heater. The impact crushed Ms. Smith's Volvo, leaving her trapped for 20 minutes with a head injury, broken arm, broken ankle and fractured transverse process at L1. Ms. Smith, a NICU nurse, had to undergo surgery on her arm, and developed a blood clot from the cast on her ankle. Four years after the wreck, Smith had significant cognitive and emotional impairments as a result of the wreck, including problems with attention, memory, processing speed and multi-tasking from her TBI and the PTSD that developed from the crash. Her arm, ankle and back healed well, but knee injuries she suffered developed into chondromalacia; however she received no treatment for that condition. The defense contended that her cognitive complaints were from stress, sleep problems, and pain, and could be largely cured by better treatment. Smith also returned to her job as a NICU nurse a year after the wreck, allowing the defense to argue that her cognitive complaints were modest, in view of the demands of her job. Baltimore Tank Liners agreed to a $1.25 million personal injury settlement. (Jun-30-05)http://www.lawyersandsettlements.com/settlements/03906/oil_tank_accident.html
