Leeds shoppers slam mounted police for not cleaning up horse poo

Leeds shoppers have slammed mounted police for not picking up their horse’s poo after the animal excreted all over the busiest high street in the city-centre.

The dung was left in Briggate, in between Footlocker and Marks & Spencer, at about 1pm today (February 8). Shoppers had to either navigate around the poo or step over it, with their noses pinched, while visiting the parade of shops along the bustling high street.

Shoppers have hit out at the police for leaving it to the street cleaners, expecting others to clean up their own mess and not leading by example and one even suggested mounted police should be handed a “big carrier bag” at the beginning of their shift to deal with the muck.
