Read the full story below to find out what happened.

My neighbor and friend owns a lawn service…

Two Fridays in a row, he got his gas cans stolen off of the back of his truck.

I told him to stop leaving them out there.

But he said it was too much of a hassle, especially if you have to unload and reload the stuff every night and morning.

This man swapped his gas can with his friend’s.

So, last Friday, I filled my own gas can with gasoline and sugar and swapped it with his without his knowledge.

The next morning (Saturday), I got up and it was gone.

Exactly like I was hoping.

He saw three people trying to fix their car.

I put his back and he never knew what happened.

Sunday afternoon, I came home from the store.

I saw three people in the street working on a car.

It is a 2017 Chevy Cobalt.

He didn’t feel sorry for them!

I just found this out from another neighbor.

They got bad gas somewhere and their car is ruined.

I hope they learned their very expensive lesson.

And I don’t feel bad at all.

That’s a great way to find out who the thieves are!
