A radiography crew notified their employer from the field that they had completed a survey and were quitting to go work for another company. Their (now) former employer instructed them to return the trucks and radiography sources back to the employer. When they did not arrive the licensee notified police who arrested the individuals. It is unclear if the individuals were attempting to steal the trucks, the radiographic equipment, or both or if the licensee was just a vindictive jerk trying to get his former employees in trouble. The types of gauges were not disclosed in the report.
