I got caught that way in the kitchen in a house I rented a room in by the
landlord's friend's 10 stone Rottweiler that he was dog sitting. Eventually,
I bribed it with a lb of boiled ham which gave me enough time to leg it out
the front door. As the landlord wasn't back that day, I had to find
somewhere else to stay that night ! After we had been introduced (and more
ham exchanged ownership), the dog and I became pals.

I used to work for a company that had a fleet of gas powered vans
(like bread vans) and they had a huge fuel pilferage issue. This was
when all cars had catalysts and the state had vehicle inspections,
however, the vans were over the GVW limit and had more lenient
eemissions. No cat con, no o2 sensor.
Without prior announcement, they started filling the company gas
storage tank with 100 octane aviation gasoline. This was not illegal
then and did not involve road tax evasion (they paid quarterly on their
mileage). The vans ran on the stuff pretty well. The cars started
having mysterious problems and everyone with a late model car who was
tapping the company can started having issues. Like replacing the cat
con and 02 sensor on next emissions test...if the cat con didn't plug
up first.
Fuel pilferage quit for the most part after that. However, the next
order of vans were LP Gas burners, which well and truly stopped
pilferage and made for much longer-lived engines.
