A mystery jogger has been filmed defecating outside a Perth health clinic on four separate occasions, prompting staff to appeal to the public for help in identifying her.
The woman has repeatedly used the doorstep of the Asbestos Diseases Society of Australia (ADSA) in Osborne Park, northwest Perth, as her personal toilet.
The clinic has now released security footage of the incidents, seeking information from the public after the series of early morning offences.
Initially, staff believed the first incident on December 8 was an unfortunate one-off and sympathised with the culprit.
However, the woman was caught again just before 6am on March 20 – this time, nearly spotted by a passing car.
She returned days later, around the same time on April 1, pausing her fitness tracker before committing the act.
After a fourth incident last week, fed-up staff decided to go public.
“Coming in and finding this in the morning is extremely distressing for our staff,” ADSA chief executive Melita Markey told Nine News.
“We (initially) thought, ‘Oh, someone’s got in a bit of distress and did what they had to do’.”
After multiple incidents, staff believe the behaviour is deliberate, especially given the proximity of public toilets and a 24-hour petrol station.
Each time, professional cleaners were called in to deal with the mess, which she claimed posed a “biohazard” risk to staff, clients, and the public.
“I believe it’s a cry for help,” Ms Markey said.
“(I don’t know) why she targets us … We’d love her to come in and see our GP and see if we can do something to help her.”
In a bid to deter further incidents, the ADSA has put up signs and images of the jogger outside the building.
The organisation has also urged anyone with information to contact them.
“If anyone has any information or can identify this individual who was caught on security camera, please contact the ADSA,” the organisation wrote online.
“Perhaps we need to leave some jogger doggy bags out!”
This incident comes amid a similar case in Adelaide, where a homeowner threatened to publicly shame a woman who defecated on their driveway.
After the incident on April 26, signs were posted around Kensington Gardens demanding the woman return to clean up, with the threat of circulating security footage if she failed to do so.
The matter was reportedly resolved privately before the deadline passed.
