I WOULD like to make people aware of the type of people we have in our neighbourhoods.

At 1.30am on October 18, along London road, Amesbury, I was woken to the sound of footsteps on our property.

The dog had been disturbed and was running around the kitchen, the security light came on and I heard somebody running from our back garden across our gravel drive and away.

I was alone at home with my baby, and to say I was terrified was an understatement, I thought I was being or about to be burgled.

Instead this kind human, and I use the term human with sarcasm and distaste, who was trespassing on our property had attempted to go into a shed – obviously not enough light – so decided instead to defecate underneath my kitchen window.

I shudder at the thought of a child finding this before I did.

I cannot believe that a so called human being could do such an appalling, disgusting, vile act, I hope whoever you are, that you are proud of yourself.

Not only have you behaved worse than an animal in my opinion, but you also succeeded in terrifying me. What a pathetic person you are.
