North Carolina police have arrested a man after he allegedly broke into a college student's apartment, and stealing her clothes.

The incident happened on Saturday when Maddie, a North Carolina University student, returned to her apartment and surprisingly discovered the 30-year-old Andrew Swofford there. Maddie and her roommates believed at first that Swofford was a ghost after some of her clothes disappeared mysteriously: "I just hear rattling in my closet. It sounded like a raccoon in my closet; I'm like who is there? And somebody answers me. He is like 'Oh my name is Drew.' I open the door and he is in there, wearing all of my clothes. My socks, my shoes. And he has a book bag full of my clothes."

The man was charged with felony breaking and entering. His bail is set on $26,600 bond.
