A COUPLE who were high on drugs spent two days believing they were trapped inside a janitor’s closet only to discover when the cops arrived that the closet had been open the whole time.

Amber Campbell, 25, and John Arwood, 31, called police after breaking into the Marine and Environmental Science Center at Daytona State College, Florida, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

They told police they were trapped inside the closet.

When police arrived a foul smell led them to the pair. They found human excrement and paraphernalia for smoking meth and crack cocaine inside the closet.

When a police officer checked the closet door he realised it had been open the whole time.

The couple were freed and then immediately arrested for trespass.
