Thieves remove political sign from gas station three times

CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA (WWBT) -

A Virginia business owner is vowing to catch the vandals who ripped his Romney-Ryan signs out of the ground - not once, not twice, but three times.

The theft from a Charlottesville gas station was caught on tape.

Shell station owner Wesley Gfroerer says he won't be intimidated. He's already set up a fourth sign.

Area police say campaign sign crimes aren't very common in the city but could send the Volvo-driving vandal to jail, for up to a year with a $2,500 fine.
