Woman lifts lid of portable toilet to discover man hiding in the waste tank



Using a portable toilet is a harrowing experience at the best of times.

But one female festival-goer was given the shock of her life when she lifted the loo seat to discover a man hiding in the waste tank.

The woman was attending the Hanuman Yoga Festival in Boulder, Colorado, when she was caught short and forced to use one of the dreaded plastic loos.

She told police she dashed outside after noticing something moving inside the tank when she lifted the lid.

Believing there might be a person trapped she asked a man who was standing nearby to go in and check.

He confirmed that there was a man covered in a tarpaulin hiding inside the tank.

A few minutes later, he heard the door lock from the inside. A festival security man waited outside for several minutes before the man finally emerged.

According to festival officials, security tried to detain the man but he ran away, covered in feces.

He is described as a white male, about 20 years old, 6ft 4ins to 6ft 8ins tall, thin build, with short dark hair and wearing dark grey sweatpants and no shirt or shoes.

Witnesses say the suspect had several cuts on his back and legs. The suspect was also wearing leather bracelets on each wrist, officials said.

Police are trying to trace the man who is being sought on charges of criminal attempt to make unlawful sexual contact.

One witness told officers he believed the suspect uses the name 'Sky,' and that he may be a transient.
