South Texan opts for painting therapy after brain surgery

ARLINGTON, Va. (WKRG) — A man in Virginia might be the luckiest break-in victim in America. After returning from a trip, the guy noticed someone had been in his apartment. But here’s where things get weird. Nothing was missing, but someone had cleaned his apartment. The crime — although some might contend this wasn’t a crime but a blessing — was reported early Monday morning . Here’s how it was entered on Arlington County’s daily crime report website : UNLAWFUL ENTRY,  2017-08080001, 1500 block of Clarendon Boulevard. At approximately 12:03 a.m. on August 7, police were dispatched to the report of suspicious circumstances.

The man assured police that he didn’t have a maid or anything. So for now, this “unlawful cleaning” remains a mystery. Share this: Related Posts Advertisement

Regeni soon befriended writers and artists and practi...
