A man in Southwest Florida was arrested for allegedly burglarizing a yacht and pooping off the side of the vessel, leaving a pile of excrement on the dock.
Just before 5:30 AM on September 17, someone boarded a 40-foot yacht docked at the Laishley Park Marina in Punta Gorda without permission from the vessel’s owner, who was sleeping. While onboard, the person allegedly wandered around and rifled through the personal belongings on the boat. It was believed that some of the items might have been stolen.
The alleged victim looked at the surveillance camera footage, and they notified the authorities about the incident. They told the police that the video clearly shows a man rooting around their yacht, and then dropping trou before defecating on the dock next to the vessel.
