A Florida woman spent a week smearing feces on her neighbors' vehicles, mailboxes, and yards.
Now a detective rolled up to follow up on the case and caught her doing it in her own front lawn.
Alexis Weber is going to need a really good explanation for what that officer just witnessed.
The Week That Destroyed Spring Oaks
Residents of the Spring Oaks neighborhood in Altamonte Springs started finding human waste in the worst possible places.
On vehicles.
On mailboxes.
In yards.
Neighbor Ivette Gomez called police last Thursday after her husband discovered feces smeared across the driver's side of his work van.
"My husband texted me that his work van is full of feces," Gomez told WKMG News 6. "I was like, 'What do you mean?' He's like, 'Yeah, there is poop on my van,' and I just couldn't believe it."
Gomez handed investigators surveillance video that appeared to show someone matching Weber's description near the van.
The incidents kept coming.
Over the weekend, someone hit the neighborhood's shared food pantry.
"Crap all over," one resident said. "Whoever did this is probably a disgusting person and I was very shocked."

That's one way to put it.
The Moment the Case Closed Itself
Spring Oaks Homeowners Association Vice President John Battle said residents pulled together and kept reporting every incident to law enforcement.
"If you call and say someone is doing this on your car, it's Florida, you aren't going to believe it," Battle said.
He's right. Altamonte Springs police had to see it with their own eyes.
On Tuesday morning, a detective arrived in the neighborhood to follow up on the investigation.
He found 50-year-old Alexis Weber defecating in the front yard of her own home and placed her under arrest on the spot.
Weber now faces charges of criminal mischief, officially linked to at least one incident, with multiple others still under investigation.
This Is Happening Everywhere
Florida has a reputation for stories like this, but the pattern runs far beyond the Sunshine State.
Just three months ago in Stoughton, Wisconsin, a 46-year-old nurse practitioner was caught defecating repeatedly in a city park.
Police set up trail cameras, identified her pattern, then sent up a drone on February 5th and caught her mid-act.
She told officers she jogged the route regularly and couldn't find a portable toilet. She got a $187 fine and walked.
Weber is looking at actual criminal charges.
The difference is intent.
Using a public park as an emergency restroom is reckless.
Smearing waste on a neighbor's work van is targeted. Hitting the community food pantry – if the evidence connects – is something else entirely.
That pantry exists so families can feed themselves.
Police didn't catch Weber because of some brilliant investigative breakthrough.
They caught her because she couldn't stop.
Battle deserves credit for saying the quiet part out loud: without the neighborhood keeping records, making calls, and refusing to drop it, Weber was probably still out there.
Nobody rescued Spring Oaks.
Spring Oaks rescued itself.
