A County Durham man has been ordered to pay over £800 after he was caught throwing rubbish over his neighbour’s wall.
Alan Hunt, of Eden Terrace, Stanley, was cauight after his neighbour saw on CCTV that he had been dumping household items in the grounds of their property. The waste consisted of two bicycles, a paddling pool, a pillow, a mattress, bags of rubbish, a bike chain, a fruit and vegetable crate, half a gate, empty tins of food and general waste.
The neighbour contacted a council neighbourhood warden who, after reviewing the CCTV footage with police, identified Hunt and confirmed his place of residence through the council’s tax register.
