Cops in Britain decreed probably the best punishment ever to a man who was caught urinating at a public place – they simply gave him a mop and bucket, telling him to clean up his mess.
The gross incident took place at a train station in Worcester, England.
A passer-by who spotted the chap while he was busy in his dirty business alerted cops at Worcester Foregate Street.
Instead of just leaving him with a warning, the officers from British Transport Police ordered the nasty man to clean up after himself – just like everyone should do.
The guy was also barred from traveling on the train and once he was finished washing up, cops told him to leave the station.
What makes the incident even grosser is the fact that the public toilets were open at the time.
British Transport Police Three Counties – which includes Worcestershire, Herefordshire, and Gloucestershire – later took to social media to share their exemplary punishment and warn other people against indulging in such a nasty and ‘unacceptable’ act.
“Today’s top tip! If you decide to urinate on 1 of our stations then expect to be given a mop & bucket to clean up after yourself, whilst being supervised,” BTP3Counties wrote on Twitter.

“You will then be refused travel like this person found out in #worcester today all whilst a very busy service was emptying,” they added.
Responding to a Twitter user about the incident, they said “the embarrassment of cleaning it hopefully will make him think twice next time. Especially when the toilets were accessible.”
When a user asked if there was legislation behind the mop and bucket punishment, the force replied: “No legislation used for the mop and bucket part of it.
I agree it is unacceptable, hence why the embarrassment of cleaning it hopefully will make him think twice next time. Especially when the toilets were accessible. Sadly if toilets are left open out of office hours there is a minority who abuse it and ruin it for the majority.

“Just a bit of common sense as I don’t see why someone should walk through or clean up someone’s else’s mess. The refused travel was under bylaw 4 of the transports act 2000.”
