Who’s been sleeping in my bed?
5:39 a.m. — 100 Block of Flagler Plaza Drive. Suspicious Incident. A deputy responded to a hotel where a man said he and his son awoke to find an unknown white male asleep in their bed.
The reporting party stated that he tried to wake the male, thinking he was another player on his son’s lacrosse team, but he then noticed it was an older man.
The victim and his son vacated their room and when to the front desk to contact the Sheriff’s Office. While in the lobby area, the reporting party came into contact with another male who was looking for his friend.
After speaking with that male, the reporting party learned that the male’s friend was the unidentified sleeping man in his room.
The man in the lobby told the victim that he and his friend had been drinking the night before and had stopped to get a hotel room.
He had left his friend to check prices at another hotel and reserved and paid for a room at the second hotel and returned to the first hotel to retrieve his friend, but found him missing. He was still looking for his friend when the reporting party found him in the lobby.
Upon waking, the sleeping man was very apologetic and was unaware of where he was. He had no idea how he came to be in the reporting party’s room.
The responding deputy noticed that the electronic door mechanism on the room in question did not pull the door shut when not correctly closed, which may be how the man was able to gain entry into the room.
The reporting parties shook hands. No charges were pressed.
