Deputies from the Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Office made the oddest of housecalls over the weekend, specifically because the house in question was sitting in the middle of a road in the middle of the night.
“Deputies responded to Berard Road in Loreauville regarding an illegal transport of a house. IPSO deputies arrived to find an abandoned truck, trailer and house blocking the 400 block,” IPSO said.
The illegally-parked domicile was discovered early Sunday morning around 3:30 a.m. blocking both lanes of a residential road in Loreauville, La., a small town that lies to the southeast of Lafayette.
Investigators say the 46-year-old owner of the home had been told “that proper permits needed to be acquired,” IPSO said. He and a 32-year-old accomplice were eventually arrested, and both were charged with violation of parish ordinance, obstruction of highway commerce and criminal damage to property.
“Those instructions were ignored and during the move down Coteau Holmes Road,” the sheriff’s office continued. “Many mailboxes, road signs and trees were damaged in the process as well as, hitting power lines and polls causing 695 ... customers to be without power for several hours.”
“Both men were booked into the Iberia Parish Jail and bond was set at $125,000.00 each. Additional charges are pending,” IPSO added.
