[Saba Sports News] According to US media reports, a video that has gone viral on social media captured a woman in New York City emptying all the rubbish from a trash can onto the street before stealing the bin. In the footage, a woman wearing a New York Knicks jersey lifts a trash can designed in the Knicks’ signature team colours, dumps all its contents on the pavement, and then carries the bin away. These special bins were released by New York City to celebrate the Knicks’ championship triumph. Many online users suspect the stolen bin will quickly be listed for sale online. Even before the city rolled out the themed bins, some American netizens had predicted they would become targets for theft. One social media user posted a prescient comment on the 18th: “The streets of New York are gonna be covered in trash, because every single one of these bins is definitely getting stolen.”
The editor believes that dumping rubbish on the street and stealing public property for personal use are both illegal and anti-social acts that no reasonable person would commit. Most importantly, doing both of these things on camera is extremely foolish.
