A Hilltop Drive woman came to the Summerville Police station this week to report a couple in her yard. The complainant told police that a man and woman were in her yard and the man was walking around with a machete. The complainant said that the woman handed her a note telling her that the couple were the new owners of the place and that the complainant needed to contact them. The complainant told police she was confused because her landlord hadn’t said anything about a new owner and she was current on her rent. The complainant went to the tax office and verified that the owner of the property had not changed. Police said that they would do a report on the incident.
