Potty-mouthed ex-Raptor rants about stolen toilet

Dec 20, 2017 | 1:30 PM

DALLAS — A former Toronto Raptor has taken to Twitter to complain that a toilet was among the items stolen from his Dallas home during a burglary.

Thirty-three-year-old Charlie Villanueva, a former Toronto first-round pick who most recently played in the NBA with the Dallas Mavericks, posted a photo of the space in his bathroom where his toilet once stood.

In a series of sometimes potty-mouthed tweets, Villanueva says his home appliances also were taken during the burglary Tuesday.

Villanueva described the episode as “mind blowing,” saying he’s “in shock.”

He criticized police for a slow response to his burglary report, saying he called four times about the purloined toilet.
