In Local, Police Blotter

A load of garbage was illegally dumped in Cobourg on Wednesday, July 24, 2024.

It appears the garbage was dumped in the early morning hours after a pickup truck or trailer was traveling north on Greer Road when it pulled over and dumped the garbage.

It appears the culprit/s may have been doing home repairs and/or drywalling.

A carpet was also in the garbage and a drawing of a dinosaur with the caption “Godzilla awakens.”

Vehicles traveling northbound have to swerve around the garbage that was partially on the road.
