A Boston man put a space saver on a parking spot expecting to see it available when he returned from a late-night work shift.
Boston.com reported that the parking spot, which the man shoveled out and attempted to reserve with a bookcase on February 8, was occupied by a vehicle with a New York license plate when the man revisited the spot later on.
A Craigslist post told the story last week. According to the now-deleted post, the man shoveled the snow back onto the culprit’s car.
The Boston man, preferring to remain anonymous, is an Uber driver from Jamaica Plain, according to WEEI.com.
Newsday noted that the city’s parking regulations allow a space saver to be used for as long as 48 hours.
