A man, who has been living in the attic of a church in the USA, has been arrested.
Arlington County Police confirmed that 42-year old William Barker will face charges of unlawful entry.
It is claimed he has been sleeping on a makeshift bed, hidden away in Saint Ann Roman Catholic Church in Arlington, Virginia.
Authorities said they also found food, water, clothing and even a guitar in the room.
Police were called when someone at the church heard noises coming from above the kitchen area.
It is reported that Barker used a ladder to sneak up to the attic.

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
