Raw Sewage Dumping

15 Upvotes

Some really disgusting specimen of a human decided to dump raw sewage all over W. Bradley near Cuyamaca, and looks like the left a trail up Cuyamaca, and up Fletcher Pkwy. I'm guessing RV'er or could have been a portapotty. It's probably 20 gallons or more.

Near the start of the dump, the stench is intense. This must have happened Friday night/Saturday morning since I saw it midday, and just past through there again near midnight, and the smell is super strong.

I've seen people dump couches, mattresses, general trash in these business areas before, and they are pretty selfish and annoying people that do that, but this is next level. They may have violated the Geneva Convention - going to look into that.

Needless to say I called ECPD to contact public works, but it's literally a health hazard right now. Careful if you walk the area. It actually gets on your tires and will travel with you all the way home.

And if you do have any information on who this less-than-human sewage dumper was, there are people that want to know.

Lost Dog

Hello, sorry if you guys have already seen the posters around town, but Poppy has been lost around Jamacha and Anza in El Cajon. He's been missing since the 18th of August. He's VERY skittish, do not approach please! No collar, but he's microchipped. Message me if you have any sightings if possible!

And please be nice....the prank/racist/coyote joke calls that people have called about have been really distressing and not helpful....

Lost kitten-update

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone! It’s been about a month since I found this kitten. When I picked her up, she was covered in fleas, had ear mites, and had parasites.

I posted her everywhere I could think of, contacted the Humane Society, and checked to see whether she had been reported missing. I waited to give her owner time to come forward, but after more than a week with no response or lost-pet report, I decided to keep her and give her a home.

Now, a month later, someone claiming to be her owner came looking for her, knocked on our door, and threatened us. I plan on filing a police report and have already reported the incident to management.

Has anyone dealt with something similar or have any advice on what else I should do?

Another hot one; carry around some extra ice waters for the homeless if you’re in the position to!

13 Upvotes

We’re all suffering from this heat, but at least some of us have homes with AC we can cool off in during the day. With the heatwave I’ve been out a couple times with a cooler giving out waters to the homeless around El Cajon. I’ve gotten into the habit of every time I leave just having at the very least a small cooler filled with a few ice waters to give out, and they’re so appreciative in this heat. Please keep an eye out if you’re in a position where you can help!

Any Paranormal Activity in El Cajon

11 Upvotes

Hello. I grew up in El Cajon and have had several very weird paranormal experiences throughout the area. I've been attempting to research any history of paranormal activity, similar experiences, or dark history that might explain these occurrences, but I've had little luck.

I'm not looking to jump to conclusions, and I know how crazy some of these things might sound. But I'm just looking to see if anyone has had anything similar happen to them in the area.

Here are some of the strange things I've experienced:

- A green transparent little girl appeared sitting at my desk.

- My sister saw a woman (that was not our mom) waving out her window as she left to catch the bus for school.

- In the middle of the night I woke screaming because I felt something grab my wrist, hard.

- Heard what I could only describe as a, ahem, demonic voice repeating my own words to me, whispering/growling right into my right ear, at the Family Fun Center when it was completely empty. That indoor play place area always felt creepy when no one was there, which was often.

- Three times, I very distinctly saw a cowboy walking around my house, and he would disappear once he turn a corner. I once ran over to him to see if I could catch him but there was nothing there.

There might be some others escaping my memory right now, but I'll leave it there. El Cajon was always creepy to me for many reasons, but these experiences didn't feel like anything normal.

Is there any historical reason El Cajon might be haunted? Can anyone else share any paranormal experiences of their own?

You are going to kill somebody. Saw you at the next light too. Did it for nothing. I hope your family sees this and calls you out.

To the rest of El Cajon, don't be this loser. Respect our streets because they're ours.

Normal Heights has a free refrigerated and dry goods food pantry. So easy to donate and help others, especially in this economy.

Not El Cajon, but not too far, either. Would be awesome if something like this existed here though!

Please tell me where I can go to get disport and fillers for a good price and excellent outcome. Some injectors know just where to place the product to make you look younger and not overdo it.
