Investigators from the Queens District Attorney’s Office were turned away at a $1 million Flushing home taken over by squatters Thursday — as another tenant claimed he was duped into subletting.
“I’m not a squatter, I’m renting,” said the man, who declined to give his name. “I paid rent. I’m not a squatter. Everyone in there right now is paying rent. Yes, to the same landlord. It is no good.
“People are taking pictures of us and yelling at us,” he said. “We are all paying rent. Everyone in there is paying rent. I don’t want to live with the squatter.”
He emerged from the house on 160th Street just 20 minutes after two DA investigators repeatedly knocked on the door and tried to get in but were left out in the cold — and finally gave up.
