Investigators have tracked down the person for starting a 73-acre wildfire in Boise, Idaho on Wednesday: a cyclist who had to drop a deuce.
According to a press release from the Bureau of Land Management, the bike rider was trying to be responsible and did not want to litter – so he lit his toilet paper on fire and then tried to bury it. It obviously was a shitty plan.
To the cyclist’s credit, he contacted investigators and confessed on Thursday morning (Oh, what I would not have given to have answered that call!).
The cyclist’s name was not released. He was cited and may have to pay the entire cost of fighting the fire.
Uh oh! The BLM said a #PoopingBicyclist started the Boise foothills fire: http://t.co/q72RtfGSKG pic.twitter.com/oap25NX9u0
