While a small crime, trespassing is still against the law, regardless of what anyone says. An Ohio man was arrested after he was spotted trespassing at a library and explained that “a higher power allowed him” to be on the property late at night.
According to the police, Carnel Gittens claimed he had “checked with Christ” and secured permission before wandering outside the public library in Sandusky, Ohio. The 28-year-old was using an exterior outlet to charge his phone at the time police arrived at 1:20 a.m.
Gittens had previously been busted for trespassing at the library on two different occasions. When a patrolman asked what he was doing on the property this time, he cited Christ.
The man was arrested and charged with criminal trespass. Gittens was booked into the Erie County jail, where he remains locked up on a $1,750 bond. Following an arrest back in 2023, Gittens, who is nicknamed “Cloud,” told police that he “was from Canada and he has been wandering Ohio for the past year.”
