Woman removed from her rat-filled home

An elderly Middletown woman known for her intelligence and eccentric behavior was barred from returning to her home on Grand Avenue after it was found piled with garbage and crawling with rats.
"I could hear them gnawing," said Middletown police patrolman Kathy Jones, who entered the home after Lila McClure was taken to Atrium Medical Center Monday, Aug. 4. "The ammonia smell was so strong it was actually burning my nose and around my mouth."
