But Why?

The Northview Cemetery in Dearborn, Michigan, has an unwanted frequent visitor: a serial pooper.

The Detroit Free Press reported that Dearborn police have been called to the graveyard seven times after human feces were found among the gravestones.

A city spokesperson said the pooper doesn't favor one particular gravesite and has not sullied the resting place of actor George Peppard, who starred with Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's."

A source said the pooper always visits in the dark, wears dark clothing and a hoodie and leaves a big mess, including used toilet paper.

A police spokesperson said the department "continues to work on identifying and locating the person responsible."
