LORAIN, Ohio — Lorain Police officers served search warrants at two houses on West 8th Street Wednesday morning, where they found drugs, guns and something unusual.

“We had people hiding in walls. We had one person fall through the ceiling trying to hide from us,” said Lorain Police Captain Michael Failing.

“That’s the first time I’ve ever seen someone hide in the wall and fall out through the ceiling when we were coming through,” added Failing, a 29-year veteran of the department.

Police said they also recovered stolen property taken during burglaries in the city. Officers arrested 13 people.
