A woman was arrested after she was caught on video stealing a tow truck with a vehicle on it from a gas station.
It happened around 7:30 p.m. at the Valero on Reed Road and SH-288 in south Houston.
Authorities say a wrecker driver with National Roadside stopped to get gas and went inside the store to use the restroom.
While he was gone, the woman, who was also inside the store, walked out, got in the truck and drove off.
Surveillance video shows the tow truck driver later walk out of the store and discover his truck was gone.
The woman was taken into custody, and the stolen tow truck was recovered. The wrecker driver was about to drop off a customer's vehicle when the truck was taken.
The woman will be charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.{{file|t=spb1U_1550172485}}
