Man found living under house

Palatka Police say they busted a crack house Monday morning, and what they found at the house surprised them. Officers went to 1107 South 10th Street to serve an arrest warrant and arrested six people in the house.

Officers also found someone living underneath the front porch. In a space that was only four-and-a-half feet tall, there was a television, bed, chair, microwave ... even a toaster.



Assistant Chief James Griffith with the Palatka Police said, he's never come across something like that before. "As far as setting up a residence with electricity running off of extension cords underneath a house, no - I can't recall any like that," Griffith said.

Police say 23-year-old Thomas Tyrone Williams was living under the house. He was arrested for drug possession.
