Man Dumped Dog Poop In Truck For Political Reasons

ST. CLOUD, Minn. (WCCO) ― A St. Cloud man was ticketed for unlawful dumping after admitting to putting dog feces in his neighbor's truck for political reasons.

Police Sgt. Jerry Edblad says a 19-year-old St. Cloud man told police he has found small baggies of dog feces in the back of his pickup truck for the past few weeks.

Donald Esmay tells KNSI-AM the feces started appearing in his truck right after he put a 2-foot-by-4-foot McCain sign there.

He and his family watched the truck trying to catch the culprit, but didn't have any luck until Wednesday when his mother and brother saw someone from the neighborhood.

They confronted the 45-year-old man, who admitted to it and said it was childish.

When police later spoke with the neighbor, Edblad says he told officers he did it because he "hates McCain."

The unlawful dumping ticket comes with a $183 fine.
