Are you aware of the fear of your home being broken into while on vacation? It’s a thought we often try to put aside. But for one Hattiesburg man, that fear became an unimaginable reality.
unexpected overflow
During the week-long visit, the host’s house became a shelter for a homeless man named Robert Otis. Unbeknownst to the owner, Otis found an empty house on Adelina Street and turned it into a temporary home.
amazing surprise
Tell me how surprised the owner was when he returned to find that his house was not only full of people, but tidier. It’s not every day you come home to a meal from the fridge or have someone’s laundry neatly folded on a chair in the living room.
Surprise at the pool
Curiosity led the owner outside, where he found Otis sweeping around the pool. When asked who he was, Otis said he worked for a pool company. However, the homeowner never hired a pool service. Take matters into your own hands.
With alarm bells ringing in his head, the homeowner pulled out a gun and held Otis until Hattiesburg police arrived. Otis was later arrested and charged with burglary.
Unusual development of events
When the owner told him what had happened, it turned out that Otis had made the most of the empty house. Not only did he eat the host’s shrimp, chicken, and sausage, but he also took care of cleaning two refrigerators, sweeping the floor, and wiping down the stove. Furthermore, Otis showered, washed his clothes and slept in his owner’s bed. It was as if I thought of that house as my home.
