But, but, but, I thought Austin, Texas was an oasis of tolerance and love in a desert of reactionary, Republican right-wingers???
Austin Police do not have a good track record.
There was a "This American Life" story a couple years ago about the Austin police setting up a sting car to catch thieves. They parked it in a neighborhood in front of a guys house without informing anyone in the neighborhood. Owner of house calls police several times complaining about an abandoned car in front of his house. Finally gets fed up after a week and investigates himself, sees suspicious items in car. Car is unlocked, he gets in trying to find some info to contact who ever owns the car. He tries to open the the locked trunk. Police swarm vehicle and arrest him for B&E. He spent over a year fighting it.

I know I shouldn't laugh but as I read this I heard the Benny Hill song in my head.

Was the pooping jogger in Austin? Maybe the cops cracked the case?
