MADISON COUNTY, Fla. (WTXL) — A credit card skimming device has been discovered on gas pimp at the Yellow Pine Pit Stop on U.S. Highway 90 in Madison.
The Madison County Sheriff's office says that on Wednesday around 5 p.m., deputies were called to the Yellow Pine Pit Stop gas station at 1407 East US Highway 90 for a report about a card skimming device.
