Police hunt train defecator
(Guardian, Monday 23rd October, 2006)
Police are looking for an individual who has been causing £ 60,000 by smearing excrement inside carriage of commuter trains, forcing authorities to withdraw carriages and cancel trains, not including cleaning costs and health risks.
Deviant behaviour such as this is hard to explain. Could the individual be having something against the railway authorities? Could he be mentally ill?
He has shown some insight by cleverly avoiding being caught, in spite of CCTVs.
He has also been waiting for the carriage to be empty before embarking on this defacement.
Let us pray that he is caught to prevent further losses and damage and also aren’t we all curious to know why he has been doing this?
Now that the news has come out, would it deter him and would he go into hiding?
This raises another question. Should the media liaise with the police and wait for the apprehension of the culprit before breaking the news?
