A homeless woman was found living inside a Michigan rooftop store sign with a computer and coffee maker.
Contractors were surprised to find a 34-year-old woman living inside a Michigan grocery store’s business sign. The woman had managed to create a living space complete with a computer, printer, and coffee maker, according to the police.
According to Officer Brennon Warren of the Midland Police Department, she was homeless. It’s a puzzling tale of someone residing atop a sign.
The woman, whose identity remains undisclosed, informed the authorities that she had been residing within the Family Fare sign for approximately one year, despite having employment elsewhere, according to Warren. She was discovered on April 23rd.

The Family Fare store is located in a retail strip, featuring a distinctive triangle-shaped sign at the top of the building. The sign structure, measuring approximately 5 feet wide and 8 feet high, includes a door for easy access from the roof, according to Warren.
Some flooring was recently installed. “A mini desk,” he said. Her attire. A Keurig coffee maker. A printer and a computer are common household items.
According to Warren, the woman managed to access electricity by connecting a power cord to an outlet on the roof.
No ladder was found. According to Warren, it is conceivable that the woman reached the roof by scaling up from a different location behind the store or neighboring retail establishments.
A representative from SpartanNash, the parent company of Family Fare, stated that store employees handled the situation with great compassion and professionalism.
Warren mentioned that the woman was very cooperative and willingly agreed to depart without any hesitation. No charges were pursued, resulting in no legal action being taken.
