CROSSVILLE RESIDENT DISCOVERS SOMEONE DISMANTLING HIS CARPORT, IT HAD BEEN SOLD

In Crossville a Sparta Drive resident came home Tuesday to find someone dismantling his carport.

When the resident asked the person what was going on – the man said he had bought the carport and was taking it apart to transport it home.  The resident explained he had not sold his carport.  That’s when things got a little murky.  Seems a woman identified as Kimberly Spencer had posted the carport for sale on Facebook Marketplace.  It wasn’t hers to sell.  She got a lot of interest in the carport and finally told someone to meet her in the TCAT parking lot and he could pay her – $800.  The ‘buyer’ paid Spencer the $800 and proceeded to go to the Sparta Drive residence to get the carport.  A warrant was taken out for Spencer for Theft of property
