DETROIT – Rose Nelson is angry with all the illegal dumping that made its way into her neighborhood on Detroit’s east side.
“It’s upsetting this happens,” Nelson said. “It happens nonstop.”
When she started recording video of what she believed was suspicious activity, the suspects took off. She’s hoping her action will help get it to stop and bring attention to what’s going on.
