Guy just tried to frame a beloved stray dog with poop he’d brought along in a bag

A Turkish man tried to frame a loveable stray dog with poop he had in a bag.

On Saturday, Murat Ongun, the Instanbul Municipality spokesperson, took to his Twitter to share footage of the moment where Boji, the dog, is framed for taking a dump.

Although the man’s name is unclear at this time, the video appears to show him throwing the faeces on a tram seat in an apparent attempt to implicate Boji.

Boji was in a shelter at the time of the event, according to the Municipality.

The pup, who is beyond adorable, can be seen playing with a man at the shelter in a video recorded in response to charges that he was guilty of the poop.
