The 28-year-old suspect told city officers that she became “upset” with her 76-year-old neighbor who would “always speak to her” while she walked her dog.
As the dispute escalated, the suspect admitted to taking “an unsecured bag” of her pet’s feces and pushing it into the victim’s face, leaving him “smeared” with excrement.
