Police officers drew up two reports against a woman who allowed her dog to relieve itself on flowers and a memorial plaque on Hero's Alley in Odesa's Shevchenko Park.

According to the Main Directorate of the National Police in Odesa Oblast, law enforcement officers learned about the incident from a video that appeared on social media.

In the video, one woman claimed that the other woman allowed her dog to relieve itself near the place of honor for the fallen defenders of Ukraine, while responding to the remarks with obscene gestures.

After registering this information, the police conducted an investigation and found that the incident had occurred this morning, and the owner of the animal was a 41-year-old local resident. Law enforcement officers located the offender and drew up two reports against her under Part 1 of Article 154 (violation of the rules for keeping dogs) and Article 173 (disorderly conduct) of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses.

If the woman is found guilty of violating the rules for keeping animals, she faces a warning or a fine of one to three tax-free minimum incomes. The second offense - disorderly conduct - is punishable by a fine of three to seven tax-free minimum incomes, or community service for a term of forty to sixty hours, or correctional labor for a term of one to two months with a deduction of twenty percent of earnings, or administrative arrest for up to fifteen days.

In March, police investigators sent a case to court over the desecration of a soldier's grave and national symbols of Ukraine that occurred in Odesa region in February. Also in February, police began investigating the circumstances of the desecration of the graves of fallen Ukrainian defenders in Odesa region in a village of the Kurisovska united community in Bereziv district.
