Man Found In Ex-Girlfriend's Parents' Attic
A 22-year-old Chatham man is facing charges after his ex-girlfriend's dad allegedly found him hiding in the attic of her family's home.
Police say that was on Wednesday, June 20.
Officers say once the man was discovered, he was "escorted out of the home."
After he left, though, the homeowner reportedly realized that an undisclosed amount of cash was missing from the residence.
A 22-year-old man turned himself in at police headquarters on Monday in connection with the investigation.
He's now charged with break and enter and theft and has been held in custody pending a bail hearing.
