Squatter arrested after occupying home of Army officer.

A squatter who had taken over the home of an active-duty Army officer in DeKalb County, Georgia, has been evicted and arrested after a Channel 2 Action News investigation. The homeowner, Army Lt. Colonel Dahlia Daure, had been away on duty when the squatter, Vincent Simon, moved in and claimed to have a lease. However, the police found that the lease was bogus, and Simon was evicted using an intruder affidavit, which bypasses the lengthy court process. The eviction process for squatters is often slow and can take months, but the DeKalb County Sheriff's office was able to evict Simon quickly.
