(JB) A woman visiting her elderly mother was surprised to find a complete stranger asleep on her mother's sofa.
The man had reportedly gained entry to the property in Knaeppchen, Rollingergrund, thinking it was empty.
Look for a place to sleep on Friday night he climbed through the living room window and stretched out on the sofa.
But, this was not the only squatting incident to surface during the weekend.
At around midnight on Friday, police evicted about 12 youths from two properties in rue Large, in the Capital. The properties were reportedly vacant and the windows had been boarded up.
Police were alerted by calls from the property landlords. The young squatters left without any problems.
