A homeowner on the verge of foreclosure in Las Vegas is not going down without a fight. He is literally destroying his home from the inside out.
"The owner of a local mortgage company is about to lose three of his homes to foreclosure. The notice came as a surprise to some of his renters, but what is really shocking is what's happening at one of the homes."
"Neighbors say the owner is destroying it from the inside out."
"It went from tossing pieces of junk to dumping it by the box full. The back yard turned into a garbage pile -- from cabinets ripped off the walls to old tires and even computer discs. The front of the home looks no better. With caulking filling the door jams and locks and orange spray paint across the windows."
