‘Intoxicated’ man caught on camera defecating on stranger’s front porch
AN "intoxicated" man was caught on camera defecating outside a stranger's front porch, leaving the homeowner feeling 'violated and angry'.
Scott McCoy captured the disturbing footage on his doorbell camera of the unknown man dirtying his porch with his feces, stumbling around, ringing the doorbell, and attempting to break in.
"That’s how we ended up with the current situation where there is excrement all over the porch.
“Initially you’re a little bit angry that someone has violated your front porch—someone has soiled up your front porch."
It all happened on Scotts's front porch in Denver's Capitol Hill neighborhood.
To prevent mailmen or any other passersby from questioning what happened on the porch, Scott taped a handwritten note to one of his outdoor chairs.
The sign read: "Pardon the mess - (Vandalism investigation in process)."
Before cleaning up the evidence, Scott is waiting for the police report to be filed.
Scott said he hopes for an apology: “I don’t know that this person—maybe they lost their job, maybe their girlfriend dumped them.
"Maybe they have a sick parent, and this drinking had something to do with that. That would make it more understandable.
“I’d certainly love to make contact with them and get an apology if that’s what they want to do, or maybe get an extra hand cleaning up the porch tomorrow."
He thinks the man must have been on his way home after a Christmas party in the surrounding area.
As Scott waits to find out the identity of the porch vandal, he'll work on getting his now-broken door lock fixed.
Scott is not planning to press charges, reported.
