ROCK HILL, S.C.,None — A bizarre theft has Rock Hill police searching for 200 gallons of grease.
Police said thieves pried open waste containers behind the Wing King Restaurant on Wednesday and pumped out the used cooking oil.
It's the second time in two days that a restaurant reported a similar theft in Rock Hill, police said.
The store's manager, Mike Wilson, said he thinks someone is stealing the oil and trying to sell it by converting it to bio-diesel fuel.
"People are doing everything they can to earn extra money, make extra money," Wilson said. "One man's trash is money for someone else."
Wilson said he hesitates to put security cameras that are aimed at trash cans, but he said he will if it prevents the thefts.
