WASHINGTON — A Washington, D.C. couple used poop in a box to teach the person who took packages off their front porch a lesson. After several packages disappeared from outside the couple’s home, they filled a box with their dogs’ poop and placed it on their front porch, according to a report on WJLA.com.

“I had originally wanted to put a note in the box that said, ‘Surprise!'” the woman told the DC-television station.

The couple then set-up a camera to see what would happen. Sure enough, a man walked up to the home, picked up the package and walked off.

The couple said they hoped someone would recognize the man in the video and call police.
