What a scare we had tonight.

Katy took Ben, Kai and Kristian to a movie this afternoon. It was sold out so they went to a later one.

Around 6:30pm (well after Katy was supposed to be home) her boyfriend (who's apartment is directly across the street) looked out his window and noticed Katy walking around inside her apartment.

He ran across and went up to her door. He knocked......and no answer. He knocked and knocked...still nothing.

He then ran down to the parking lot and looked for her car.....it wasn't there.

He freaked!

Someone was in the apartment...and it wasn't her.

He went across the street and looked up.....he saw a man looking out Kristian's bedroom window.

Yikes!

He was scared and ran up to his apartment to get a weapon and his friends(who were upstairs watching football.

They bolted across the street and waited outside the apartment. One by the door...one in the front...one in the back.

But no one ever came out.

Once Katy came home the guys looked all through the apartment and found no one. He must have bolted when he saw Josh run up to his apartment.

Nothing was taken.....but that scares me even more.

What would he be doing in there...if not to take something?

And at a time when she could be home anytime?

Also...the door was locked. Not broken into. The person must have had a key.

Please pray for their protection....and the protection of everyone in the apartment complex.

The police were very dismissive when Katy called. Because nothing was taken they were like "well what would you like US to do lady?"

AARRRRRRGGGGHHH!

How about get off your lazy, donut eating butts and come over and at least take a report you nimrod! Make my sister and her three precious kids feel safe in their own beds.

I can't help thinking what if.

What if they had made the earlier movie and she had arrived home earlier and surprised the man?

What if he had come last night when Ben spent the night with Kristian and Kai?

What if he comes back?

She will be reporting it to the apartment office first thing in the morning. I will make sure to let you know when we know anything more.

I will be praying for their protection. There could be several things here. It could have been the ex husband. Who knows why he would be lurking around her apartment, but, who knows why he's done a lot of the things he's done. It could be that Katy left a door unlocked, someone discoverd it and went in to see if there was something worth stealing and got scared off by the boyfriend. I imagine people go around looking for unlocked doors in apartment buildings with that set up. Why didn't the boyfriend call the police? In any case Katy should have the locks changed TODAY if not sooner. If the apartment office tries to put her off, she needs to not take no for an answer. It's something like this and not some crazy person looking to harm them.

It wasn't her ex. He was home with his family....also he doesn't have a key.

She lives in an apartment. No telling how many people have access to her key. Did she have an exterminator come by or someone who needed to fix something? I know they turn the key back in but how hard is it to make a copy first. If the apartment complex does not take this VERY seriously, I would move ASAP.

OMG how very, very scary. She definitely needs to change those locks, if she hasn't done so already.
