Scam II

Off point but have a sad sob story. These people going around giving sad stories about they need gas money or needed money to get a fan belt, well I have one. It just happened at 11pm last night. I walked out of the Seaford Wal-Mart and got in my car when a white male came up to my window. He asked if I could help him. I said sure. He said he needed gas money. I asked him "what are you doing in the parking lot and at 11pm?" He said he was at a friend’s house and lives in Harrington but ran out of gas on the way back home. I asked him “why are you in the parking lot, can’t your friend give you money?” He said “look, I need a few dollars to get home if you can’t help me then just leave.” He told me to leave! I watched him walk to his car and get in. I pulled around behind his car and wrote down the description and tag number down and called the Seaford PD. While on the phone, he began to drive away quickly. I started to follow him. He turned south bond on RT 13 instead of north towards Harrington where he claimed he lived. He stayed in the left lane until he was approx 50 feet from the stop light where Tru Blu gas station is and he made a quick right turn to go in the parking lot. I turned around and saw him get out of the car and began to walk in circles with his arms up to the sky as if he was praying. I told the dispatcher this and said you guys are going to have fun with this character. At that time, Seaford PD arrived and I left. I have seen this man before walking around the parking lot but it was at Roses and I’m sure he has been doing this for a while. He is approx 6 foot tall, scruffy short beard, approx 40 to 45 years old. He weighed about 200 to 220 pounds. He drove a silver 4 door older Chevrolet Caprice with DE reg 93300. Watch for this guy. I would have taken a pic of him but it was too dark.
