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.

Squatter arrested after occupying home of Army officer.

A squatter who had taken over the home of an active-duty Army officer has been evicted and arrested after a Channel 2 Action News investigation. Normally, homeowners are told they must take the squatter to court and go through a judicial eviction process, which can take months. However, the Dekalb County Sheriff’s office contacted the Army officer and said they will circumvent that process with something called an intruder affidavit. The alleged squatter had only been in the home since the beginning of May, but truckloads of things were pulled out of the home, including a gun safe and 2 dogs.

Squatter arrested for occupying deployed Army officer's Georgia home.

An Army officer returned from active duty to find a squatter with a lengthy criminal history living in her Georgia home and couldn’t get him evicted despite going to police. The intruder, Vincent Simon, moved into her for-sale five-bedroom house in Ellenwood without permission and refused to leave after presenting a fake lease. Lt. Col. Dahlia Daure eventually used an obscure landlord tenant law, under Georgia Title 44, to convince county cops to assist with the problem. Simon was arrested Thursday after police found guns and drugs at the home — charges unrelated to the alleged home invasion, cops said.
