A Kansas babysitter came face to face with a “monster” under the bed when she attempted to calm down a child she was watching.

The child complained there was a “monster” hiding under the bed and when the sitter attempted to prove there was nothing there, she came face-to-face with a male suspect.

Sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the home just outside of Great Bend at about 10:30 p.m. and when they arrived, the male suspect had fled the scene.

“An altercation ensued with the babysitter and one child was knocked over in the struggle. The suspect then fled the scene before deputies arrived,” a statement from Barton County Sheriff’s Office read.

He has been booked on charges of aggravated kidnapping, aggravated burglary, aggravated battery, child endangerment, felony obstruction of a law enforcement officer and violation of a protection from abuse order. (iStock)
