A 34-year-old woman was discovered living in a Michigan supermarket’s rooftop sign for roughly a year, with a makeshift living space containing a mini desk, clothing, food, and a houseplant. Contractors found her after noticing an extension cord leading to the sign. Police were called, and the woman agreed to leave and was trespassed from the property. She declined assistance for housing. The supermarket is helping her move her remaining belongings. The woman was dubbed the “Rooftop Ninja” for evading detection. It is unknown how she regularly accessed the rooftop. Police are astonished by the situation and wish her well. The supermarket praised its staff for responding compassionately and highlighted the need for safe, affordable housing solutions. The woman’s quirky living situation stands out in a career spanning a decade for a police spokesperson.
