Couple discover homeless man living on their roof

A British couple was shocked to discover a homeless man was living on their roof.

Pregnant mother of two Steph Wallace noticed the foot of a sleeping man sticking out over the edge of the roof on her home in southern England when she was taking out the trash.

It turned out the foot belonged to a homeless man who had set up camp on the roof.

"We think he was up there for at least a few days, but who knows. He could have been up there for weeks," said homeowner Peter Wallace.

The man ran away when Peter Wallace confronted him, leaving behind a tarp and pile of cardboard, a jug of orange juice and a decorative garden rabbit taken from the Wallace's yard that he was apparently using to weigh down his makeshift tent.
