A group of women say they are traumatized after being awakened by a naked man in their Airbnb rental over the weekend.
The incident occurred Saturday night when a group of 13 women, some from St. Stephen, N.B., and others from Fredericton, got together to celebrate a friend's engagement."So, when we left in the evening to go out, we had a really hard time getting the door shut," said Jessica Bellis. "It wouldn't shut."When they returned an hour later, the door still wouldn't close, so they went to bed and put a dresser against their bedroom door.
"I said, 'How did you even get in here? And he said, 'I've been hiding in your closet,'" Bellis said. The property owner tells CTV News that all the doors into the home were checked on Saturday morning and were locked.He has since refunded the guests their money and has moved the key-pad lock to an inside door.
"We're looking over our shoulders," said Rebecca Dow. "We don't even feel good going into a store, paranoid in the dark. Literally, every aspect of our life has changed since this event."
