Facebook picture catches out fly-tipper
A MAN who dumped bricks in a street has been fined after a photo shared on Facebook led to his identification.
Darren Perry, from Tangmere, was caught after a member of the public spotted the pictures on Chichester District Council’s Facebook page.
They recognised the bricks as part of a brick arch which was demolished in January.
The number of the house , in Tangmere, was still attached.
A homeowner confirmed that he had asked a relative to dispose of the bricks.
Mr Perry was interviewed under caution and admitted the offence. He agreed to pay a fixed penalty notice of £250.
‘The council has spent more than £142,000 clearing away illegally dumped waste,’ said authority boss Louise Rudziak.
