A child fearing that a monster was under their bed discovered something possibly even scarier.
According to the Barton County Sheriff’s Office in Kansas, a babysitter was watching a local family’s children when one told her that a monster was lurking in their room. Presumably knowing the deal when it comes to assuaging the fears of children, the babysitter looked under the bed herself to prove the absence of monsters.
What she found, however, was a real-life man hiding in the shadows. Upon being discovered, the man fled the area, but not before getting into an altercation with the babysitter.
The suspect, a former resident of the home named Martin Villalobos Junior, was eventually tracked down and arrested. Charges include aggravated kidnapping, aggravated burglary, aggravated battery and child endangerment.
