Your Friday Morning Florida Report

PUNTA GORDA, Fla. (WWSB) - A Punta Gorda man faces felony charges after deputies say he dumped a makeshift goat pen in a vacant lot near his home, the Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office said. 

It’s at least the sixth illegal dumping arrest on the Suncoast since February, the third in Charlotte County. 

According to an arrest warrant, deputies responding to an anonymous complaint on Bermont Road found a fiberglass enclosure 8 feet long, 5 feet wide and 6 feet high, sitting abut 20 feet from the roadway. A large pile of animal droppings suggested it was used as animal shelter.

Hell, all he had to do was put a For Sale sign on it and some dope fiend would've stolen before he got back to his house.
