PENSACOLA — Store employees were shocked to discover a man had been secretly living in the attic of a local Walmart, complete with a makeshift bedroom, mini-fridge (stolen from electronics), and an impressive collection of beef jerky.
The man, identified as Robert “Bobby” Jenkins, 45, had tapped into the store’s electrical system and had been using the family restroom facilities during overnight hours. He told police he “just wanted to be close to the Hot Pockets and fishing supplies.”
“It was actually pretty nice up there,” said responding Officer Davis. “He had a camping cot, some string lights, and what appeared to be a organizational system for his snacks. Very tidy for a squatter.”
Jenkins was discovered when a ceiling tile collapsed during the lunch rush, revealing his foot dangling above the cereal aisle. Store employees reported hearing occasional noises over the past three weeks but attributed them to “probably raccoons or something.”
Jenkins has been charged with trespassing, theft, and unauthorized electricity usage. Walmart representatives stated they are “reviewing security protocols.” Jenkins told reporters his only regret was “not installing that shower system I was planning.”
