CLEVELANDThe Ohio woman dubbed the cleaning fairy by local media because she broke into a home and cleaned it without permission, was arrested on Tuesday after police found her shovelling snow from a driveway without the owners consent, police said.
Police in Elyria, a city about 50 kilometres southwest of Cleveland, arrested Susan Warren, 53, on an outstanding warrant stemming from the separate incident last year where she entered a suburban Cleveland home, did some light cleaning and left a note charging the owner $75.
She could face jail time for a probation violation but no charges have been brought for the unsolicited snow shovelling, an Elyria Police Department spokeswoman told Reuters on Thursday.
Last November, Warren pleaded guilty to attempted burglary and trespassing in connection with the house cleaning incident in May. ....................(more)

It's about the only way this dump will be cleaned.

(2,522 posts)It's important to note that she wasn't arrested for shoveling the snow. Rather, it was for previously breaking and entering another home earlier, doing some cleaning, and then leaving a bill for $75.
I wonder how much she was planning on charging for the snow shoveling?

It's never a dull day in Florida, our country's most fantastic state. Let's set the scene: It's Monday, January 21, and an unnamed North Fort Myers resident is lying in bed relaxing after a hard day's work. Just after 7 p.m., he hears a noise coming from his roof he thinks it sounds like thunder. He goes outside to investigate the disturbance, when he sees 21-year-old Gregory Matthew Bruni running on his house. Bruni leaps from the roof, tackling the man. Bruni is naked.
From there, Bruni runs into the house, hellbent on destruction. He sees a "large television" minding its own business and knocks it off its stand. He then spies a vacuum cleaner. How do you terrorize a vacuum cleaner? You don't you just empty its contents back onto the floor. That's what Bruni does. From there, things finally start to get weird:

(14,881 posts)He mowed my lawn last summer without my permission, and in the process destroyed my 2 dog tie-outs. Hopefully wrecked his blade in the process. I don't use the tie-outs often, but they are helpful in certain emergency situations, one of which I had the next day. I suspect his real motive was to case my place. One of his friends wants to buy it for half its market value.
Oh, he also has attempted to set my horses loose by the side of a busy road. I found the gate pulled wide open and the horses cowering in the furthest corner of the pasture. Since they never hang out there (it's by a moose trail frequented by moose and coyotes), I'm pretty sure he attempted to chase them out the gate. I know it was him because he was mad at me for complaining the morning before after he started laying on his truck horn and swearing at the top of his lungs...at 4am several mornings running.
I also found a cigarette butt in the snow on the hillside behind my garage that overlooks my barn and paddock within 10 days of my having to put down my elderly gelding. I suspect he was trying to scope out where my boy was buried with the intent of complaining about it.
His 2 dogs were in my yard daily for 18 months, chasing me around my garden trying to bite me. I never complained about having to round them up for him. That didn't stop him from calling the cops on me when my goat slipped through the gate so she could graze in *my* side yard.
As a result of his prior behavior, he is the #1 suspect in the disappearance last summer of my $30 loppers from my garage.
Oh, but the house cleaner can swing by here one day, s'long as she does floors and windows, and doesn't break anything.
