Bradley, IL – A security camera at Northfield Square Mall captured footage of individuals allegedly dumping items into a business dumpster early Thursday morning, prompting mall officials to seek the public’s help in identifying those involved.
According to a Facebook post from Northfield Square Mall, the incident occurred near the back of the property, where a gray minivan was seen parked beside multiple dumpsters. The post, shared by the community group “Residents of Bradley, IL,” reminded residents that business dumpsters are not for public use and that unauthorized dumping is illegal.
The timestamp on the surveillance image indicates the footage was taken on Thursday, January 2, around 1:14 a.m., showing the vehicle with its lights on and what appears to be discarded materials beside the bins. Mall representatives have asked anyone who recognizes the individuals or vehicle to come forward.
Local authorities have not yet confirmed whether an official police report has been filed, but mall management emphasized that improper disposal on private property can result in fines or charges under local ordinances.
Residents are encouraged to contact Bradley Police Department or the Northfield Square Mall management office with any information related to the incident.
