Can you help?

On the afternoon of Monday February 20 someone backed into the Transfer Station driveway and dumped a large amount of carpeting, its backing, and a dog toy west of the entry gate. The materials were urine-soaked. The Portage County Sheriff Department (PCSD) is investigating this littering incident. The PCSD and the Town of Grant is asking for your help. If you know who might have done this, please contact the non-emergency number for the PCSD at (715) 346-1400 or Town of Grant Chair Sharon Schwab at (715) 213-1717.

Thank you.
