NORTH TONAWANDA, N.Y. (WIVB) — Officials in the City of North Tonawanda and residents of one quiet neighborhood in the city are seeking answers to a strange and disgusting situation that they’ve been dealing with for weeks.
For over a month, residents on Alice Street say they have dealt with several instances of fecal matter raining from the sky and hitting several homes. Resident Gwen Eichler told News 4 she is concerned about letting her dogs out at times and had to get a power washer to clean up the mess.
“There’s nothing left to see except for my Facebook post, which have been prevalent ’cause when I first put it up first time, everybody went ‘What?’ Put it up a second time, ‘You got to be kidding me,’ and when I put it up a third time everybody went, ‘You got to win a lottery,” said Eichler, who has been posting updates on the situation on her Facebook page. She says usually the material showers the area during the afternoon and evening hours.
“There’s no comic relief, this shouldn’t be happening,” Eichler said. “I contacted the mayor, if I were the mayor of a city, airplanes are dumping their honey pot, this just shouldn’t be happening … I want this to stop and my neighbors want it to stop.”
