HILLSBORO, Ohio - A man angry that he wasn't going to be sold a house is accused of using a power saw to turn the abode into a convertible. Rodney Rogers apparently thought an acquaintance was going to build a house and sell it to him, and he was living in it while it was being completed, Highland County Sheriff Ronald Ward said Wednesday.

After the acquaintance refused to complete the sale, Rogers used a power saw last week to make a lateral cut through the walls and siding at about chest level, authorities said.

He cut all the way around the house, Ward said.

Only one thing was keeping the top half of the house in place on the bottom half.

"Gravity," Ward said.

The owners had not estimated the dollar value of the damage, Ward said.

Rogers, 66, of Greenfield, remained free pending a court appearance on Thursday.

Hillsboro is about 50 miles east of Cincinnati.

I wonder what brand of saw he used, & how he managed to keep the blade from binding, especially on that last few inches of wall.   :shruggy:

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Sweet revenge! :rofl:

It won't seem so sweet when he's sitting in jail and his cell mate asks what he's in for and he says, "for cutting a house in half" and the guy gives him a WTF look.  :rofl:

What charge would they get him on? Vandalizm?    :icon_smile_big:             

Probably a big civil suit and nothing more.
