What if you came home one night and your house was missing?
Michigan State Police troopers have made an arrest in connection with a cabin that was stolen from a county road in northern Michigan. Police said through tips, several search warrants executed on cellular devices, and interviews, troopers were able to locate the cabin only a few miles away.
The troopers said Jeremy James Knoll became a suspect when the cabin was found on his property. He reportedly attempted to hide the cabin by placing large pieces of sheet metal around it and altering its appearance, but troopers found matching serial numbers inside the stolen cabin.
Knoll was charged with receiving and concealing stolen property and was given a $20,000 bond. The investigation is ongoing and more arrests may occur.

this is one of the craziest posts you offered us so far, Beth.
Made me wonder: Whatever next?
Has the thief taken everything in it too? Gosh, this is borderline genius/craziness. He really must have loved the style of the cabin!

I’m trying not to be cynical, but I can’t help but think that there would be a lot of effort to move this cabin. And if it was furnished, with electric and water hooked up, even more work. What a crazy idea to implement!
