A search is underway for a man in Sussex, nicknamed the ‘Phantom Pooper’, who has been defecating on ‘neighbour’s road’ and even brings his own toilet roll.
The quiet seaside village of Camber in Sussex is experiencing issues with the so-called Phantom Pooper, who is reportedly defecating in public spots.
On Thursday morning, CCTV footage captured a man standing in a garage corner on what seems to be a residential street, holding toilet paper in one hand.
He then squats with his trousers down to relieve himself in full view of any passers-by.
