Lancashire Council Hunts The Cigarette Butt Dropper
BIG local news in the Lancashire Evening Post – NW Daily Newspaper Website of the Year” – that Lancaster Council “is on the hunt” for a man who “allegedly dropped a cigarette butt in the city’s Market Street.”
You might mock and think this an utter waste of time and taxpayer’s money. But it starts with butt, moves onto a good inch of still burning ciggie, then before you know the rapscallion is lobbing entire packets of lit ciggies over kindergarten walls.
Enforcement officers say he ran away before they could be issue him with a £75 fine.
He’s a smoker. He won’t have run far.
* If you know who he is, call the council on 01524 582439.
Or don’t.
