SEATTLE, Feb. 26 (UPI) -- A Seattle woman fed up with packages disappearing from her front porch tricked a suspected thief into stealing a box filled with soiled kitty litter.

Megan Holt, who posted her security camera footage to YouTube, said her front porch had repeatedly been targeted by package thieves, so she filled a box with used cat litter and set up the security camera to record what happened next.


The video shows a woman cautiously walk onto the porch and peer into windows to determine whether she is being watched.

The woman apparently doesn't see the security camera, so she grabs the box and walks away at a brisk pace.

Holt branded the woman a "poop thief."

"Sick of porch theft, I loaded up this dummy box with dirty litter from our litter box. Looks like she won't be getting the clothing she was hoping for," she wrote in the video's description.
