A “Porch Pirate” Made Off With A Homeowner’s Entire Porch
A Georgia man is giving a new meaning to porch pirate after a recent arrest.
According to this report, a man named Robin Swanger was arrested for stealing a neighbor’s porch from the front yard. Yes, the WHOLE PORCH all 8 feet by 10 feet of porch!
The house had been removed from the lot, but the property owner says the porch was NOT up for grabs. So it was just a porch to nowhere in the middle of an empty lot covered in No Trespassing signs.
The owner of the porch said that it was NOT up for grabs even though they moved the home off the lot. During the investigation, the porch reappeared on the lot but was upside down. Police were looking for Swanger for days in relation to the investigation.
They found him when they got a call to his residence on a domestic abuse situation. Swanger was arrested for the porch theft and also charged with two counts of domestic violence.
