The chalk-graffiti artist has left messages along the path, next to the BMX track on Burns Road, to the repeat offender saying things like ‘shame on you’ and ‘when I catch you I will make you eat it’.
The ongoing issue of people not picking up their mess around the area has been a constant gripe of more thoughtful citizens in the community.

Joanna James, a dog owner and parent, was walking along the path earlier today when she saw the messages.
She said: “I’m a dog owner and there’s no way I would leave mess like that – it’s disgusting. I can see why the person has left the messages, it’s a bit vigilante and I do see their point.

“The mess could turn a child blind if they fell in it. I can see it’s disgusting, they are huge.
“The powers that be are aware of it. I have never caught anyone doing it, they must be doing it really late or really early in the morning.
