A former Airbnb host finds himself in legal trouble after allegedly engaging in indecent exposure outside a residence while using a vacuum inappropriately.
Kevin Dale Westerhold faces charges of indecent exposure, as stated in a press release by the Osceola County Sheriff’s Department in Florida. Court documents reveal that he has entered a not guilty plea and was released after posting a $2,500 bond.
On January 22, law enforcement was called to Windsor Hills Resort in Kissimmee in response to reports of a man allegedly exposing himself. Witnesses provided officers with a cell phone video capturing a partially dressed individual engaging in lewd behavior, according to the statement from the sheriff’s office.
The officer also examined a report from the previous day, which involved an unclothed man seen in a communal hallway of the gated community. A resident shared Ring camera footage that captured the incident.
Authorities noted that Westerhold managed several Airbnb listings at the resort. Following the incident, he has been removed from the platform, as confirmed by an Airbnb spokesperson to Oxygen.
One renter told police she looked out her second-story window and saw a man—allegedly naked from the waist down—outside a residence, according to an arrest warrant obtained by Oxygen. She claimed he then approached the front door, stood in the threshold and began masturbating with a vacuum, per the warrant, allegedly continuing along the path from the driveway to the front door.
Later, after bringing the vacuum inside, the man allegedly reemerged with a bottle of liquor and was “visibly stumbling as if he was intoxicated,” before driving away, she said in the warrant.
Another resident told police she was aware of “issues” involving a neighbor being naked in a shared hallway, per the warrant, and provided videos and photos of the alleged incidents.
When police contacted Westerhold, he allegedly said he had been in Kissimmee working at an Airbnb, read the warrant.
An attorney for Westerhold did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Oxygen. A spokesperson for Windsor Hill could not be reached.
Westerhold’s next court date is April 14.
