An unknown suspect has been disposing of multiple plastic jugs filled with urine several times in recent months in Beaverton, Oregon.

KIRO hosts Jake Skorheim and Spike O’Neill of “The Jake and Spike Show” put forth their latest endeavor to solve this unique crime and bring the urine-disposing suspect to justice.

Key details in Beaverton pee bottle case

“The gist of the story is somebody’s peeing in bottles and dumping it into trash cans, and they don’t know who the guy is because he covers his face,” Jake said. “He knows that he’s probably going to get picked up on some ring doorbell cameras.”

The suspected urine-dumper has been discarding his bottles in broad daylight, a Beaverton resident, Trish Bellingham, told KATU.

“For my first view of the car, it looks like a four-door sedan. I’m thinking it looks imported, those also are not factory wheels,” Spike said. “This is how we do it, by the way, this is how we solve crimes.”

Spike referred back to the numerous crimes they have assessed and solved, including the case of the missing donkeys, the lost Liberty Bell, and the torched trestle, among others.

“The guy’s carrying two giant bottles of pee-pee on camera, and he’s throwing them into the trash; this is a crime we can solve,” Jake said. “They don’t have any clear shots of the license plate, so that’s going to be a problem. If they had that, they probably wouldn’t need us.”

Bellingham described the man as medium height, with dark hair and a slight build, also noting that he drove a light-colored vehicle.

Spike: ‘I don’t see a crime’

“Let me get this crime straight, man puts garbage in a garbage can?” Spike said. “Someone who’s throwing garbage in a garbage can, I don’t see a crime.”

Jake then related the incident to a different, more common occurrence, in light of Spike’s lukewarm response to solving the crime.

“If this isn’t a crime, then is it also not a crime for those people who walk their dogs, and dump those little bags of poop in your garbage?” Jake asked. “Could they be prosecuted, or is that not a crime?”

“Well, it’s not my trash can,” Spike said.
