On July 31, Hanover police were called to the parking lot of BJ's, where a woman reported feces in her car.

Authorities learned that the woman's "young" service dog had unexpectedly defecated in nearby mulch, and she went inside the store to get a bag and clean it up.

When she returned, she found that the feces had been thrown around in the interior of her car, police said. Authorities added it caused roughly $500 worth of damage to the car.

BJ's management provided a possible suspect from surveillance video, but it took Hanover police until Sept. 15 to positively identify Nigro as the suspect.

Nigro was mailed a complaint with a court date listed for his appearance after he refused to drive to police headquarters.
