A 28-year-old Marathon woman was arrested Wednesday for leaving about 150 pounds of trash on the ground at Coconut Cay Resort.
Mary Ann Scott was charged with dumping of litter exceeding 15 pounds on private property.
Deputy Antonio Guieb was on an unrelated call near the property when he came across about five full garbage bags containing numerous household products and garbage scattered over a roughly 12 foot radius. He estimated all the trash to weigh about 150 pounds. Some of the trash packages had Scott’s name on them. Scott lives in an apartment less than 100 feet away from where the trash was found. The trash was not left in a trash collection area.
Scott was taken to jail.
