A 25-year-old man is facing mischief charges after he defecated on someone's deck in Turkey Point, and the act was caught on video surveillance.

Norfolk County OPP say the incident happened at around 11 a.m. on Sunday on Cedar Drive in Turkey Point.

Cedar Drive runs along the shore of Lake Erie in the cottage community, as well as through the town itself.

The culprit went onto the deck, defecated, then ran to a white four-door sedan and immediately left the area.

The suspect and the vehicle were captured on video surveillance and identified.

On Monday, police charged a 25-year-old Norfolk County man with mischief. The man interfered "with the lawful use, enjoyment or operation of a property," OPP say.

The accused will appear in Simcoe court at a later date.
