We can't make this up.

And for the weirdest story of the day, a student at the University of North Carolina noticed for a few days that pieces of her clothing had been missing from her closet and handprints appearing on her wall. It wasn't until she heard a sound in her closet one day and opened her door to find a man in her clothes. 

“I just hear rattling in my closet. It sounded like a raccoon in my closet,” the student told FOX8. “I’m like who’s there? And somebody answers me. He’s like ‘oh my name is Drew.’ I open the door and he’s in there, wearing all of my clothes. My socks. My shoes. And he has a book bag full of my clothes.”

The man has been identified as 30-year-old Andrew Swofford and the student told the publication how she called her boyfriend as Andrew continued to try her clothes on - how. “He tries on my hat. He goes in the bathroom and looks in the mirror and then is like ‘you’re really pretty, can I give you a hug?’ she recalled. “But he never touched me.” 

Apparently, this hasn't been the first time someone has been in there house, previously the woman found two men in her living room. 

“Last night I did not feel safe. I slept with my roommate in her bed,” she said. “I can’t stay here. My closet, it stinks. Every time I go in [my room] there’s a bad vibe. I’m just ready to leave.”

Andrew is jailed and booked on a $26,000 bond with 14 felony charges including larceny and identity theft.
