'This is really going to sound strange' � Texas house stolen

MADISONVILLE, Texas � A Houston couple has reported a house heist � as in, their vacation home was stolen.

KTRK-TV reported Jo and Lonnie Harrison say their one-bedroom, one-bathroom cabin is missing from their property in Madisonville, about 90 miles northwest of Houston.

The prefabricated home was on property they purchased last year. The Harrisons hadn�t checked on it since early November. But when Lonnie Harrison returned Friday, all he saw �were blocks and pipes sticking out.�

He said he called his wife, who couldn�t believe what happened. When he called the Madison County Sheriff�s Office, he prefaced his report by saying: �This is really going to sound strange, but I need to report a stolen house.�

The sheriff�s office didn�t immediately return a call seeking an update on the case Monday.
