Foreclosed and vacant homes are becoming the site for parties according to a November 23rd article by Larry Copeland of the USA TODAY.
In the article you can read about one home in Atlanta that was used for a Halloween party in which 1,000 people paid $20 each to have a good time. In this particular case, the house was rented for the pary but that is not always the case.
Some vacant homes are broken into for parties. The article tells how the Tempe (AZ) police carry lists of foreclosed homes so they can check to be certain the home is truly vacant.
If you live in Cochise County and see suspicious activity around a vacant home, call the Sherrif’s office or local police.
