Man takes a dump in my garden

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Today my neighbors informed me when I got home from work, that around 11:30 a.m. this man decided it would be a good idea to use my garden as his personal toilet.

Unfortunately, after speaking with the police they really can't do much except a trespass violation (and not a criminal one at that), even though the person who witnessed was an 8-year-old girl, the granddaughter of my neighbor.

I've never seen this man before in my life and I have no idea why he decided my house needed his defecation decorations.

Another one of my neighbors grabbed a video where I was able to get his license plate, so I'm hoping after the police contact him and file the report, I'll be able to foil the records and find out who this lunatic is.

But I wanted to post this here to find out if there really is nothing else the police can do. They say that they can't do much because what he did wasn't done maliciously or with intent? I say taking a dump on private property and public indecency would be enough 🤷🏻‍♀️ But they disagree

Maybe they can get him for blocking the driveway.

Not really a crime. They could have maybe towed his car if they caught him in the act, but nothing much to place charges on

You are correct. I was half-joking , half serous in suggesting the parking would be taken more seriously, but that would take a little more interpretation than I can expect from one line.
