SUV spotted parked atop dumpster in Florida
Published in Weird News
(UPI) The mystery of an SUV seen perched on top of a Florida dumpster was revealed to have involved a poorly-timed parking job, a construction site and a forklift.
Scott Greenberg said he was on his way to the store when he spotted the vehicle parked on top of a dumpster off East Point Drive in Fort Myers.
"I had to do a double take. I texted my buddy. I'm like, 'Is that fair game? Is that free?' It's in the dumpster," Greenberg told WBBH-TV.
It turned out the SUV had been lifted onto the dumpster by a forklift operated by a construction worker helping to build a new apartment complex.
Workers said the vehicle had been left parked in a work area.
"Sometimes when you park where you're not supposed to, this is what happens," a construction worker said.
The vehicle was later removed from the dumpster and relocated to a parking space away from the work area.
Construction workers said they learned the SUV belongs to a contractor who loans it out to out-of-town workers in need of transportation.
