Two trucks loaded with fuel missing

Two tanker trucks, carrying a combined 3,900 gallons of diesel fuel, disappeared Tuesday from a distribution business on Atlanta Industrial Parkway west of downtown, Atlanta police said.

The trucks, one containing 2,096 gallons of fuel and the other with 1,800 gallons, were noted as missing around noon. A security guard told police he saw the two tankers pulling away from the On-Site Fuel Center around 10:30 a.m. The driver of the first truck waved to the security guard as he drove past, according to a police report.

Because of the large amount of fuel involved, the FBI is working with the Atlanta Police Department in the investigation.
