Total trash: wild video shows woman stealing Knicks garbage can and dumping refuse all over the street
An “Incredibly Stupid” Woman Steals Knicks Trash Can in Wild Viral Video
An “incredibly stupid” woman was caught stealing an orange and blue Knicks trash can in New York City in a wild viral video that is taking social media by storm.
The woman, dressed in an orange hat, blue New York Knicks shirt, and jean shorts, is seen dumping a mountain of trash out of the receptacle onto the sidewalk and walking away with the can while horrified spectators look on.
She is joined by another person also clad in Knicks attire before the video ends, although it is unclear if the two were together.
“They’ll be listed on Facebook Marketplace as ‘Rare Vintage Knicks Memorabilia’ for $450 by tonight. Honestly, trying to lug a giant public sanitation bin onto the MTA during rush hour is peak New York dedication,” one user commented on the video.
“Girl this is Theft lol,” another user wrote.
It wasn’t clear when the incident took place. The NYC Department of Sanitation and clothing brand Only NY collaborated to release hand-painted mesh wire trash cans to celebrate the Knicks’ NBA championship ahead of the parade on Thursday.
“Dumping trash onto the street and stealing public property for your own personal use are both illegal, antisocial behaviors, and not what New Yorkers do. On top of all that, doing both on camera is incredibly stupid,” the Department of Sanitation told The Post in a statement.
The NYPD stated they have not received any complaints regarding the incident and had no comment on any investigation.
After the trash cans were announced, there was widespread speculation online that they would be swiftly stolen by rabid fans looking to own a piece of history.
This is not the first time a Knicks fan has been caught behaving badly following the team’s victory. An X-rated catfight erupted at The Canyon of Heroes when a woman climbed a streetlight pole and threw another woman off her perch.
The displaced woman proceeded to pull her adversary’s pants down, revealing her orange Knicks thong, and repeatedly punched her buttocks as she twerked.
On the night of the Knicks’ win — their first championship in 53 years — chaos and disorder erupted in the streets of New York. There were 63 arrests, 4 stabbings, and one shooting reported, with 10 NYPD officers injured in the mayhem that followed the historic win.
Shocking video captured a mob of people destroying yellow school buses parked in Times Square, meant to transport soccer fans to watch the World Cup at MetLife Stadium, with one set ablaze.
