A local transient with a history of defecating and urinating in public has been arrested again after he was caught on video pooping in the Iowa City VFW parking lot.
Iowa City Police have been called to the 600 block of Hollywood Boulevard multiple times in the last ten days for transients hanging out between the VFW and Can Shed buildings. Just before 8:30pm on July 17th, 60-year-old Russell Weston of Cross Park Place was observed and recorded on video defecating in the VFW parking lot. He’s been charged with Public Urination or Defecation.
Iowa City Police have received numerous calls in the last week for a transient defecting in private parking lots. In 2018 Weston was arrested after urinating on the floor of his room at Mercy Hospital while arguing with staff.
