Locksmith installs shower and a camera and douses people peeing on the wall in the back alley

A couple of jokers in Pennsylvania have dealt with the nuisance of public urinators by turning the tables - and a shower - on them.
About a year ago, the innovators in an Allentown-based Locksmith shop, grew weary of passers-by relieving themselves in the alley behind their store.
To combat the issue, the unidentified men installed a shower that would pour water on anyone who tried to urinate in the alley.

Maybe, first they said, let's just install a shower with a remote so we can just turn it on every morning to rinse the stink off. Then came the "ah ha" moment. So they installed cameras and started watching the alley. I was trying to decide if the shower had an electric eye and turned on by itself, and since it rinsed the woman who was just trying to change her blouse, it is possible that it is automatic.
