Okay the obvious spin on this story annoyed me so I looked up more info. I used the news footage to find the location on Google street view, and there clearly is no sidewalk. There is also a "Private Property: No Trespassing" sign. It's right across from the soccer complex and the dirt has clearly been chewed up by people driving there, probably due to vendors setting up stalls and people parking to buy stuff (it's a two lane road, no room to park). And the street view photos are from Jan 2023.
So my guess is that this guy got fed up after months or years of dealing with street vendors and finally snapped, tossing their shit off his property. Probably would have been smarter to just put up a fence though.
