Pierce County offers free gas for tips catching most wanted
08:34 AM PDT on Friday, July 11, 2008
TACOMA, Wash. - There's a new gas incentive for you if you help catch a crook.
Pierce County Crime Stoppers already offers a $1,000 reward for a legitimate tip. Now they're giving out a $250 gas card on top of that to tipsters who help them catch the 50 most wanted people in the county.
It's an unusual tactic - giving away gas for criminals. But consumers say it gets their attention and they like the idea.
"That would be really helpful to a lot of people, with gas being $4 going up to almost $5," said one Tacoma driver.
