CLEVELAND, Texas (AP/CBS Houston) — Investigators say two parolees have been detained for allegedly squatting in the house of a Texas soldier living at Fort Hood who recently returned from his third tour in Iraq.

A relative of Staff Sgt. Sam Burbank and his wife saw the couple’s property for sale on the lawn Tuesday and notified Liberty County authorities.

Officials say Burbank and his wife, Hollie, planned to return to the house in Cleveland, about 45 miles northeast of Houston, to inventory their belongings for possible burglary charges.

The Houston Chronicle reported police worked in the rain to save what possessions they could for the Burbanks.
