Philadelphia police are quickly becoming the authorities on oddly compelling viral PSAs.

First, they generated national attention with a bizarre revival of a Saved by the Bell drug PSA from 1991. Now, the department is getting traction for a snow-related request to report people who are blocking parking spots with "cones, lawn chairs, trash cans, uh, toilets, and any other household item." 

On Facebook, the quick clip set to the tune of Drake's "Hotline Bling" has tallied more than 365,000 views and been shared upward of 8,500 times.
