This abandoned house sat in the middle of a two-lane road in Delaware

Police in Dover, Delaware were flummoxed on Tuesday when they found a house sitting in the middle of a two-lane road with an "Oversize Load" banner hanging across it.

According to the police on their Facebook page:

"Sooooo somebody left a house on Long Point Road. Nope this is not a joke. We are unable to get anyone to move the house until Wednesday, so Long Point Road is closed until further notice. Please use an alternate route of travel."

Turns out part of the trailer had fallen into a ditch, and it was too late in the day for the owner to have someone come out and fix it. By Wednesday the big load was taken away and a state of normality on Long Point Road was restored.
