BAY CITY, MI — Three years ago, a married couple won a half-million dollars and bought a house in Bay County’s Bangor Township. Now, as they stand accused of going on a multicounty burglary spree, records show they also owe thousands in back property taxes on their home.

Stephanie D. Harvell, 28, in January 2016 won $500,000 on a $5 “Hot Ticket” scratch-off ticket from the Michigan Lottery. A few months later, husband Mitchell T. Arnswald on May 6, 2016, bought a house on Lauria Road in Bangor Township for $80,000, records show.

Arnswald, 29, owes delinquent property taxes for 2016, 2017, and 2018 totaling $4,863.50, according to the Bay County Treasurer’s Office. Arnswald on March 21, 2019, filed a hardship agreement with the county, agreeing to make monthly payments of $60.

He did not make a single payment, records indicate. ... If the delinquent taxes aren’t paid by March 31, 2020, the county could foreclose on the property. ... Arnswald and Harvell wed in December 2015.
