An “incredibly stupid” woman was caught stealing an orange and blue Knicks trash can in New York City in a wild viral that is taking social media by storm.
The woman — who is decked out 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 marching away with the can while horrified spectators looked on.
She joins another person clad in Knicks attire before the video ends, 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 X user commented on the video.
“Girl this is Theft lol,” another X user wrote.
It wasn’t clear when the dirty deed took place. The DSNY and clothing brand Only NY teamed up to release the hand-painted mesh wire trash cans to celebrate the Knicks NBA championship ahead of the ticker-tape parade 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 New York City Department of Sanitation told The Post in a statement about the clip.
The NYPD said they have not received any complaints into the the incident, and had no comment on any investigation.
After the trash cans were announced, people widely speculated online that they would be swiftly stolen by rabid fans looking to own a piece of history.
“Streets are about to be filled with garbage because all of these are 100% getting stolen,” on X user wrote Thursday in a now-prophetic post.
