A Massachusetts homeowner came home last week to find that someone had broken into his residence. But after a quick search of the home, he realized nothing was missing. In fact, it was perfectly made up, more perfect than how the family left it when they went out.Nate Roman, 44, of Marlborough, said he had returned home with his 5-year-old son last week when the little boy noticed that the back door was open."It was terrifying to know someone was in your house," Roman said. The intruder made up all the beds, stacked his son's stuffed animals and left an origami rose on the toilet paper."They scrubbed everything down. They did the shower, did the toilets," Roman said. The unidentified intruder even left paper roses on the toilet paper roll. Roman said every room in the home had been cleaned, except for the kitchen.“I was immediately worried that someone was in the house,” Roman said.Confused and not sure what to make of the situation, he called the police.The Marlborough Police Department said officers were taking the case very seriously. They didn't have any leads or suspects in the case.Roman believes because of the toilet paper roses, it was probably a cleaning service that went to the wrong house, but he's not taking any chances and has changed all the locks to his home.
