'Case of Missing Trash Can' Solved as CCTV Reveals Garbage Truck as Culprit
A family left wondering where their trash can went in San Antonio, Texas, got their answer after checking CCTV, where they noticed that the collection hadn’t quite gone how it was supposed to.The amusing footage was recorded by Alex L Gamez’s security camera, and shows a city garbage truck’s automated arm picking up the bin to empty it. But the bin slips from the arm’s grasp, following its contents into the truck.Gamez, who called the incident the “case of the missing trash can,” told Storyful that it was his wife who noticed something wasn’t right when she came home that day.“She asked me to check on the security cameras and see what happened to the trash can,” he said. “I searched until I saw [it] and then went forward … That’s when I saw that the trash can got taken by the San Antonio waste management truck.” Credit: Alex L Gamez via Storyful
