every few days we have to pick up trash in our front yard. Sometimes whole garbage bags.
Last week someone tossed a couple of them, or they fell out of truck or something like that. It was a mess and dark out, so I called 911 as it had become a hazard for cars. It was extra bad. The deputy met me out front and I was explaining it to him. Then I told him I had found a credit card receipt and handed it to him. He looked a little puzzled when I did that. I said it's a good clue as to who is responsible. Said he hadn't thought about looking for evidence. A road crew came out and cleaned up the mess in the road in a few hours. I was looking out there in the morning and saw a guy filling up a couple of bags with trash in the yard and ditch. Didn't look happy. I'm betting the cop gave him a choice, pick it up or get a littering ticket.
