ALTAMONTE SPRINGS, Fla., May 21 (UPI) -- A Florida man who littered his yard with junk including toilets and a statue of buttocks has been released from prison after serving four years.

Alan Davis of Seminole County was originally convicted in 2003 on a felony criminal littering charge for what he called a political protest,

In 1999, he began covering the roof and yard of his home with toilets, airplane parts, scrap metal, a giant statue of buttocks and other objects his neighbors found objectionable. He was sentenced to one year in jail.

However, he was jailed for three more years after incurring multiple parole violations following his release.

Davis was released from prison Wednesday.

The exterior of his home is currently clear, except for some tall weeds, WKMG-TV, Orlando, Fla., reported.
