The wife of Cardiff City goalkeeper Jak Alnwick said they thought their home had been broken into when a drunk elderly man turned up lost at the wrong house. Shayna Alnwick said she believed she was being robbed and was prepared to pick up a slat of wood from the spare bedroom to defend herself, while 29-year-old Jak nearly phoned the police.
Shayna shared the hilarious turn of events on her Instagram story on Monday. She wrote via her instagram page @theflippedpiece: "My husband and I were home getting ready for bed and someone was at our front door trying to break in! We were yelling at them to go away and realised it was just an older gentleman who was drunk and somehow thought this was his house!! So we tried to figure out his name and where we lived but he couldn't really speak properly.
"He was freezing and must have been wandering around late last night trying to find his way home! He kept saying his street name over and over and we Googled the street and it was 10 minutes away by car! It was so cold so we got him in the car and drove him to the street he said and as soon as we got on his street he yelled MY HOUSE and walked himself right inside."
