Residents of Ypsilanti, Mich. no longer have to worry about the threat of poop on slides at a popular children's park, as authorities have warned a suspect to knock it off. It appears to have worked. 

The mystery pooper had been a community nuisance from November until last month, when Ypsilanti Police made contact with the individual and ordered them to stop. According to Police Chief Tony DiGiusti, charges were not filed against the suspect, who reportedly lives in a halfway house in close proximity to the park. 

MLive reports that the bandit left so much feces on the slide that police were forced to set up a camera in a nearby tree to, and a group of residents pitched in to put a billboard up asking for assistance in finding the individual.

At least the shitstorm is over—for now.
