A transient woman was arrested Sunday after she had broken into a home and had been squatting there for several days. Deputies were called to the 6000 block of Outpost Road in Joshua Tree about 4:30 Sunday afternoon. The resident said he had come home from working on the road for the past few days to find Michelle Davila, 43, living in his house after breaking in. The resident said he didn’t know her, but she had done this before a few years ago as well, and decided to come back. The deputy determined that Davila had broken a window to the house and her criminal record showed she had a prior arrest for burglary at the same address. Davila told deputies she wanted to return because she felt at home there. Michelle Davila was arrested for investigation of burglary and vandalism, booked into the Morongo Basin Jail, with her bail set at $25,000.
