Got a call Friday from a construction company that was finishing up a tank replacement job at a local gas station. There was a good size pile of metal. Mostly old conduit that was used in conjunction with the tanks and pumps. A lot of this conduit still had wire in it. There was also some light iron and some plate and structural. I took 2 loads out on Friday and went back this evening (about 530 PM) to get the rest. What was left needed to be cut to fit on the trailer. I had just finished putting the last of it on the trailer and was texting the owner of the construction company when 2 cruisers pulled in. Apparently someone reported that I was possibly stealing metal. Luckily, I knew one of the officers. He believed me because we knew each other and he also said that he didn't think I'd be stupid enough to steal it in broad daylight on a busy street.
