He walks up to the closet, he comes up to the closet, now he's at the closet, now he's opening the closet (closet, closet, closet)...

A homeless woman in Japan has been arrested for finding a place to call home. For the past year, this woman lived in a man's closet. The man in question had no idea he wasn't living alone for some time, but eventually started to become suspicious when he noticed that his food was disappearing. So he set up security cameras at his home and last week one of the cameras caught someone moving about. The man called the cops, thinking it was burglars.

"We searched the house ... checking everywhere someone could possibly hide," [police spokesman Hiroki] Itakura said. "When we slid open the shelf closet, there she was, nervously curled up on her side."

She had moved a mattress into the small closet space and apparently even took showers, Itakura said, calling the woman "neat and clean."
