I was thinking the same thing: genius! Can you arrest someone for cleaning up your dirty town?

Companies are starting to even pay him to sculpt dirt advertisements. Moose told NPR news that he got the idea “when he saw that people had written their names with their fingers on dirty walls in his hometown of Leeds.” The artists tools? A shoe brush, water and a lil’ elbow grease. The police officers in Britian have no idea whether to arrest him or to applaud him for cleaning up the streets. <A target="_blank" href="http://www.onlywire.com/submit?u=http://www.caffeinemarketing.com/bizarre-marketing/moose-the-dirt-graffiti-artist-of-britian/%26t=Moose%20The%20Dirt%20Graffiti%20Artist%20of%20Britian%26tags=moose%20graffiti%20artist%20britian" title="Add%20this%20Article%20to%20Onlywire">Add to Onlywire</A>
