Question: Wouldn't the mall staff have removed any gas from the car parked inside the mall?
Answer: Not necessarily, there are many instances where cars are parked inside of malls or even stadiums for promotional purposes. It is a lot easier to have gas in the car if it needs to be moved or replaced for any reason.
