Mounds of trash found on campus campgrounds

A dumping ordinance was violated at the camping area near the Pavilion for Agriculture and Livestock Education between 6 p.m. July 16 and 7 a.m. July 17, MSU police Sgt. Florene McGlothian-Taylor said.

A 55-year-old male university employee reported plumbing materials, rotten paneling and wooden framing had been dumped all over the campsite, McGlothian-Taylor said. The amount of garbage dumped was enough to fill the bed of a pickup truck.

The items were disposed in a nearby trash receptacle by university employees. The case is still under investigation.
