A reader passes along this photo she took of a very large, very neatly stacked brick pile seen at the Tom Thumb near Victory Park this afternoon. She says it was not there this morning, that cops had for sure seen the pile and that a group of civilians are currently removing it.
This is one of many similar reports we have received of brick piles popping up around Dallas today.
Amid an ongoing flurry of conjecture, it is becoming increasingly difficult to fully discern which of these piles may represent regular construction detritus and which may not.

PSA: Be alert, be careful and be open-minded, but also beware of confirmation bias.
IMPORTANT UPDATE: Another reader passes along a photo timestamped December 2019 of the same brick pile we mentioned earlier in this thread.
Note that the position of the pile, the barren trees at the bottom of the picture and the lack of boards along Tom Thumb's storefront.

This pile has been sitting in this lot for at least five full months.
