For the Past two weeks someone has been parking alongside our property and dumping trash in our yard and bushes. This includes food, paper products, soda and sports drink bottles, fast food and other junk. This has happened repeatedly and I need help patrolling the area and keeping it clean as well as deterring people from being here. Today I found these young men parked in my yard and asked them to leave. They said they “dropped something” and we’re just picking it up and started swearing at my when I asked them to leave again. They then threw full sodas into my yard and drove off with their License plates covered.
