A man alleged to have Puri for Rent (2025)spent the last year pooping on his neighbour's property has been charged by Australian police.

As reported by the Courier-Mail, the 64-year-old Brisbane man dubbed the "poo jogger" is an executive at a retirement village and investment group.

Until recently, he remained elusive to residents at an apartment block, who complained someone had been pooping on a path by night several times a week. They believed the act had occurred 30 times in the last year.

They had a plan to catch the culprit, and they got the evidence they needed in May. The photo is erm, not subtle, and is only for those who aren't exactly phased by disturbing content.

“One of the neighbours set up a night camera and got a few images and so we had a time he was doing it," Steve, who took the photo, told news.com.au. Steve also decided to wait with a camera. "I was there a few mornings and then last Friday I got him."

Queensland Police confirmed they had charged a man with public nuisance, and he was due to appear in court on Monday.

The internet demanded to know why he did it, and we guess, how he did it.

Australia's "poo jogger" is the latest in a line of other public defecators, with a New York "Mad Pooper" who terrorised lawns, and another in Colorado Springs who repeatedly messed up a sidewalk.

Then there's the most recent case of a mystery pooper in Toronto, who does his thing in public gardens.

Toilets, what are they?
