A babysitter who tried to prove that there was no 'monster' under the boy's bed got more than she bargained for.
The incident, which occurred in the town of Great Bend in Kansas, began when a babysitter who had been looking after some kids struggled to calm down one particularly terrified toddler who was adamant that there was a monster hiding underneath his bed.

Keen to prove the youngster that there was nothing to be frightened of, the babysitter knelt down to peer under the bed only to find, to her horror, that there was a strange man hiding underneath it.

The woman did her best to remain calm, though the encounter ended in an altercation during which one of the children was knocked over and the man ended up fleeing the scene.
Fortunately, police officers were able to apprehend him a short time later.

It turned out that the 27-year-old, who had once lived at the property, had since been ordered to stay away under a protection-from-abuse order.

He now faces multiple charges including aggravated burglary, aggravated battery and child endangerment.

It still remains unclear, however, exactly what he was doing under the young boy's bed in the first place.
