A wheelie bin was stolen in the early hours this morning from the alley behind a house in Belfast this morning.
Despite the string of wheelie bin thefts in the area, police are reluctant to take action. When questioned a PSNI spokesman said “This is one of the few occasions where we can honestly say we have better things to spend our time on”.
Outraged, residents contacted their local MLA who has said “This is the sort of reaction we expect from the police. Instead of wasting time policing these so called ‘parades’ and cracking down on driving offences, the PSNI should be more concerned with community crime. I Will do everything in my power to ensure that tax payers money is spent on a local task force and an historical enquiry team to investigate wheelie bin theft”.
It can cost up to £80 to obtain a replacement wheelie bin and concerned residents have asked the council to foot the bill. Belfast City Council has advised that they have no money left after recent city events such as the Tall Ships and the Simply Red concert that will be held later this August.
The local neighbourhood watch scheme will continue to make enquiries but the representative has said “this particular case is pretty cut and dry, there’s a wee shite that lives in the street behind with a bum fluff tash and four scabby kids and we’re pretty sure he stole it to set fire to it and huff the fumes”.
The wee shite was unavailable for comment.
