DURHAM, N.C., Jan. 10 (UPI) -- Police in Durham, N.C., said they were led to a suspect by the trail of fresh dog-doo he left after stepping into a pile while fleeing.
Authorities said Josue Herrios-Coronilla, 18, crashed his car into the yard of Bill McDonald, who owns four dogs, after driving the wrong way down the street, the Durham Herald Sun reported Thursday.
Officers discovered the wrecked car, crushed bushes and a pile of dog feces with a fresh shoe print. Durham police Sergeant Dale Gunter followed the smelly trail until he encountered a white van driving in his direction. He asked the passenger of the van to exit the vehicle and noted the odoriferous evidence on his shoes and the smell of alcohol on his breath.
Herrios-Coronilla was charged with underage drinking and driving while impaired.
