Sometimes you just need a quiet place to sleep as close to food as possible. According to NBC-2, a homeless man in Naples found his spot in the pantry of a damaged home.
The home is located on 6th Avenue in Naples and was unoccupied since Hurricane Ian damaged it. At least it was supposed to be unoccupied. Naples Police officers responded to an anonymous call about someone squatting in the home, and they found signs that someone had recently been there. A blanket, clothes, and other personal items were their first clues. A person responsible for watching the home told the officers that nobody else had permission to be there. That man saw the items earlier that day, but did not find anyone in the house. However, apparently he forgot to look in the pantry. That’s where the homeless Naples guy was hiding.
Officers saw fresh footprints near a sliding glass door. After that, they found 40 year-old Matthew Clint Adams sleeping in the walk-in kitchen pantry. He was taken into custody. The man who watching the house pressed charges on the owners’ behalf. Apparently, this is not the first time something like this happened and “No Trespassing” were put up earlier this year. Finally, Adams was charged and given a new place to sleep in the Naples jail.
