The Invercargill Pool Pooper

 Photo was taken by Taylor Simpson

For six Fridays in a row between February and March of 2015, the Invercargill Splash Palace in Invercargill, New Zealand would fall victim to a code brown. A pool pooper would leave their marks in the pools. One day even hit three of the pools in three hours. 

There was no evidence of who the pool pooper could have been. The park saw many people a day and their CCTV just wasn't good enough to catch something like that. It could be that not all the code browns were caused by one person. Some theorize it was a kid with stomach issues too embarrassed to speak up. It's likely no one will speak up about who had done this and will remain a mystery.
