Purloined poop: Who's the victim?
As man was shopping, thieves stole droppings, then fled holding the bag
12/05/2002
Matt Boswell had that holiday spirit after Christmas shopping this week in Frisco.
Then he saw some stinking thief messing around in the back of his pickup truck outside Stonebriar Centre mall.
"I yelled at him," said Mr. Boswell, who watched the dirty dog haul two plastic bags from the truck to a waiting car and flee. The Little Elm resident didn't give chase or waste his time calling police.
No. 1, the loss was a mere drop in the bucket.
No. 2, this is the season of sharing, a time for surprises.
"I sure wish I could have been there when he opened the bags," said Mr. Boswell, "entremanure" of a pet waste-removal company.
Those gift bags together contained about 25 pounds of leftovers from lawns in Irving and North Dallas.
"I just couldn't stop laughing," said Mr. Boswell, who had parked in the open so people, including thieves, could read the words painted on the sides of his truck.
"It's pretty obvious what we do," he said. "It says we scoop poop."
Mr. Boswell said he and his three employees weekly take in about a ton of dung.
And if the guys in the black, four-door sedan want some more, he said, "we have plenty where that came from."
