    Lol if you point the camera to the opposite side of the road from the school...

    There appears to be a tramp, with a bottle of blue lightning cider.. and if you go down the road a bit and look back he's giving someone the finger...

    you need to double click on the westbound side of the road (nearest the school) and he appears, if you click on the East bound he disappears
