“I mean it’s aggravating,” Edwards said. “I expect more from my city. I mean it’s embarrassing.”

Edwards said he was at work Thursday around noon when he got a motion notification on his phone from his security system. But he didn’t think much of it considering he gets a ton a day.

When he came home and saw the mess he checked his cameras.
