Fearing A Cat, Homeless Man Breaks Into CA Governor's Mansion

SACRAMENTO, CA -- After hearing the sound of a wild cat, a homeless man reportedly broke into the California Governor's Mansion. The incident happened April 19 after 51-year-old Steven Seeley said he heard a "deep, deep growl," KCRA reported.

Seeley apparently made himself at home too as he wasn't discovered until two days after getting through an unlocked door, KCRA reported.

“He’s an open-door policy kind of guy, so I figured the door would be unlocked," Seeley told the news station.

Seeley was arrested and booked Sacramento County Jail, KCRA said.

Gov. Jerry Brown moved into the mansion, which was built in 1877, in 2015 after it served as a museum.
