A man and woman spent two days in a cupboard in Daytona Stae College, Florida believing they were trapped when in fact the door had not been locked.

According to the Orlando Sentinel, John Arwood, 31, and Amber Campbell, 25, claimed they were chased into the closet on Sunday.

After two days, Arwood called the police, who arrived on scene to find that the door did not lock.

Inside the cupboard, officers found human faeces and copper scouring pads often used for smoking crack cocaine, though no drugs were found.

Both were charged with trespassing. Campbell was also charged with violating her probation.
