Toilet containing frozen raccoon left on driveway of home

Mansfield Township police in New Jersey responded to a report of vandalism at an undisclosed location in the township on Monday.

But the vandals chose an unusual way to act: They heaved a porcelain toilet onto the driveway of a private residence. With a dead, frozen raccoon inside the tank.



Sgt. Shawn Bates confirmed the incident, saying police investigated it as more of a prank than a threat. The dead raccoon was stuffed inside the toilet's tank.

Bates said police have turned over the matter to the township's Animal Control Officer and the state Division of Fish and Wildlife.
