Fly-tipper’s paint trail all way to door

- BY TOM INGS

A MAN who dumped a load of decorating rubbish was caught by a trail of paint that led to his door.

The lazy DIY fan flytipped his waste next to a country cycle path.

But one of the black bags had split and white paint was leaking out.

Powys county council staff followed the trail 100 metres to his front door in Lower Cwmtwrch, Swansea. Magistrate­s fined the offender €450.

The council said: “The genius literally left a trail all the way to their house.”
