Influencer Kate Bartlett warned her followers about the importance of securing their homes after a harrowing encounter with an intruder in her New York apartment. Sharing her experience of being broken into while she was asleep, she discussed her false sense of security residing in a luxury building with a 24-hour doorman on the 42nd floor. Her decision to share the story was aimed at educating others about safety precautions, urging them to keep their doors locked and deadbolted to avoid similar incidents.
"So two years ago, a random man broke into my New York City apartment in the middle of the night while I was there," she said as she warned viewers to keep their doors "locked and deadbolted."
"Two years ago, I was living in a luxury high-rise building downtown, I had a 24-hour doorman and I was on the 42nd floor in a very safe neighborhood."
"Ultimately, she decided it was "worth it" if her experience could help to keep "one person safe."
"The doors to all of the apartments in the building were a key card system. So it wasn't like a key that you had to turn and lock."
