When called, GSA staff speaking to one of the officers was told that the driver failed to stop, therefore he had to pay for the fuel used to chase him.
GSA staff tried bring the officer's attention on the fact that there were 4 trucks moving together and this particular one which happens to the second was being asked to while others left without paying anything.
