"I need to report a stolen house"

A Houston couple wants their vacation house returned to them.

Jo and Lonnie Harrison told Eyewitness News someone stole their entire home off their property in Madisonville, Texas. They bought the 10-acre property with a prefab home on site last year.

It's a one-bedroom, one-bathroom home with a green roof and wood siding.

They visit the area to escape from the busy city. They last drove up to the property in early November.

Lonnie Harrison returned Friday only to discover the entire structure gone.

"Nothing. Nothing that I wanted to see. I didn't see the house," said Harrison. "All I saw were blocks and pipes sticking out. The whole house gone. Everything except the blocks."

Lonnie called his wife, Jo, who couldn't believe the news. They called the Madison County Sheriff's Department to report the disappearance.

"I said, 'You know this is really going to sound strange, but I need to report a stolen house.' They were like, 'A house?' I said yes. We have 10 acres and had a little cabin and the cabin is gone," said Jo Harrison. "Give us a call. Call the Madisonville Sheriff's Department and let them know what you see. We really would like to have our house back."

You'd think a neighbor might have seen something. That cabin looks to be approximately 20-25 feet long and 10 feet wide.

A derelict house was dumped on a vacant south Auckland site, setting back development for a new retail centre.

The graffiti-covered dwelling appeared overnight on a lot on Manuia Rd, Takanini on November 18 or 19.

And as far as the neighbors noticing: in the '90's, during the first solar energy push, the State of VT put up a good sized installation outside the Middlesex State Police barracks. About 6 months later, during a long weekend, the panels were lifted sight unseen. The cops didn't notice until Monday morning. (Suspicion at the time was that the crew loosened all fasteners Saturday night, then filched the panels Sunday night.)
