Police were dispatched to the U-Haul facility on Linwood St. last Friday on reports that a man had been found in the office prior to its opening on that day.

Upon arrival, the officers met with the General Manager who told them that when he arrived to work he had discovered that the office door was unlocked. When he went inside he reportedly discovered a man standing at the main desk, completely nude.

The alleged intruder, identified as Alexander Olivares-Thompson, 24, appeared to be intoxicated, according to the officers’ statements.

It was noted that Olivares-Thompson had relieved himself on the floor of the office, and that boxes of torn up merchandise were scattered across the floor as well.

When questioned, Olivares-Thompson reportedly told the officers that he had taken an Uber Cab Ride from downtown Boston and that the driver had dropped him off in the area of Linwood St. He further stated that he made his way into the U-Haul office, as the door had been left unlocked. The officers later confirmed that there appeared to be no signs of forced entry.

Olivares-Thompson reportedly waited in the office until the manager arrived.

Police placed Olivares-Thompson under arrest and charged him with destruction of property over $250 and trespassing.
