HAMPTON, Va. — The four wheels of a GMC SUV were more than just Margaret and John Eaddy's car - it was their home for several weeks in the fall of 2020.
“We were living in our car, and it was horrific," Margaret Eaddy said.
In late September, Eaddy and her husband were evicted from their Hampton residence with no place to go. They resorted to living in their car, which they would park next to Darling Stadium near downtown Hampton.
