A Chicago woman named Monica Fitz said she trapped a man who appeared to be following her into her apartment building’s stairwell, then went to building security and later called the police to escort her safely inside her unit. The incident, which she documented across multiple TikTok videos posted to her account @monicabfitzz, has since gained more than 2.5 million views.
In the first TikTok video, Monica Fitz described noticing the man’s behavior as suspicious from the moment they were both in the elevator together. According to Fitz, when she pressed her floor button, the man did not press any floor button. She said she asked him which floor he was going to, and he did not respond.
