Man Becomes Local Hero After Power-Washing Hometown’s Filthy Pavement: ‘I Got Fed Up’
A window cleaner has become an online sensation after pressure washing his hometown’s filthy pavement and sidewalks in his spare time.
Andrew Carr has been dubbed a hero by TikTok users for his efforts and his videos that have attracted thousands of followers from around the world.
