FLOWER MOUND (CBSDFW.COM) – A group dedicated to keeping Flower Mound beautiful has come across an ugly sight.

They were searching a neighborhood for code enforcement violations when they stumbled onto a home that needs to be torn down but found a veteran actually living inside.

Charles McAnally lives in an unstable, dilapidated home falling apart.

“I don’t like it, it makes me feel uncomfortable,” says McAnally.

It was discovered to outsiders by surprise and now there’s a desperate campaign underway to help him get out. His roof and floors are collapsing. Not to mention the suffocating piles of items and trash that have built up, a result of his late wife’s hoarding addiction.

“It could be better,” says McAnally.

Still, the 71-year-old Army vet wasn’t looking for help when the group Keep Flower Mound Beautiful discovered his living conditions while helping neighbors with code enforcement issues.
