Dumpster Diving Crook Caught

It didn’t take Chatham-Kent Police long to track down a suspect in Chatham, although officers likely wish he’d found a better hiding spot.

Authorities were first contacted yesterday morning about a pair of suspicious men near Tecumseh Park.

One of the suspects was seen riding a bike and carrying tools, but once he spotted police, the accused jumped off his bike and fled on foot.

The 22-year-old was found a short time later hiding in a garbage dumpster on Sparks Street.

He was arrested on outstanding warrants.
