A DOSSER literally loitered within-tent after breaking into a garden shed in Bury.
To keep out the night chill, he put up a tent he found in the hut in Dale Street.
For an unknown number of nights, he is thought to have snuggled up in the tent to keep warm.
But there was no sign of him on Tuesday when a Bury fire crew tackled a blaze at the shed.
The hut was damaged but not destroyed in the fire.
