Former Bridgeport Worker Caught Illegally Dumping Trash: Report
The suspect was recently laid off by the city.

BRIDGEPORT, CT — A 51-year-old Ansonia man, who is a former Bridgeport Parks and Recreation employee, was caught on surveillance video and arrested for illegally dumping trash on Suggetts Lane in Bridgeport, reports the Connecticut Post.
The video captured a business name on the side of a pickup truck, from which a man was throwing away garbage bags. That image eventually led police to arrest David Spencer, of Shearsby Road. Bridgeport's Suggetts Lane has become known as a spot for illegal dumping, according to the publication.
Spencer was recently laid off from the city and started his own landscaping business. He was charged with illegal dumping and released on a promise to appear in court this month.
