Cleaning Fairy Arrested: Ohio Woman Busted for Breaking Into Homes and “Tidying Up” [Video]

Authorities in Northern Ohio have arrested a woman that local residents have dubbed “The Cleaning Fairy.”

According to the Westlake Police Department, Susan Warren, 53, of Elyria is facing felony burglary charges for breaking into homes, cleaning up, then leaving her “customers” with a bill for her services.

Warren was arrested Tuesday night after performing one of her nightly surprise cleanings.

“There were some coffee mugs that my husband had out,” one Westlake homeowner, Sherry Bush, said. “She had washed them all.”

Bush added that after Warren illegally entered her home and washed her husband’s coffee cups, she then took out the trash, vacuumed the carpet and cleaned up her daughter’s playroom.

Bush then pointed out that, unlike the Tooth Fairy, the cleaning fairy’s “gifts” don’t come free of charge.

“She wrote a note on a napkin and left it on the table, saying, ‘$75 I was here to clean,’ and left her name and number.”

ABC reports that Bush quickly notified authorities who then called the number on the napkin. Police said Warren answered the phone and became irate and hung up, but not before yelling that she “does this all the time.”

Despite the strange nature of these crimes, nothing was stolen from the homes. Charges against Ms. Warren are expected to soon be filed as this is her second (known) time trespassing and “cleaning” someone’s house.
