Gaseous thievery.
A woman was struck in the leg by a shotgun blast after she and two others were spotted early this morning siphoning gas from vehicles in the area of Freeport Boulevard in Sparks, police said.
The woman was identified as Sarina Ellis, 22, who was hit in the leg.
A man identified as Alden Noring was taken to Washoe County Jail and booked on suspicion of battery with a deadly weapon and shooting into a vehicle.
Police said Noring turned himself in to authorities after the incident, about 2:25 a.m.
Police said Ellis, along with Allen Dixon, 25, and Katrina Myrick-Davidson, 43, were siphoning gas when Noring awoke and went outside with a shotgun to confront them. Police said Noring fired at least twice.
Noring was involved in a similar shooting at 385 Freeport Blvd., in 1995, police said.

well with the high prices of gas these days...i'm surprised this is not happening more often.
