CTV
A Nanaimo, B.C., woman was shocked to discover a naked man hiding in the trunk of her car this week.
Mounties say the incident happened at approximately 4:45 p.m. Tuesday.
Bethany Coker recorded the ordeal on her cellphone and posted video of the encounter to her TikTok account, garnering millions of views by Friday.
In her post, Coker figured the man had been in her trunk since Saturday.
"Why are you in my trunk and are you naked?" Coker asks the man in the video.
"Yeah, it's a rite of passage," comes the response.
RCMP Sgt. Chris Manseau says officers were called and the man was taken to hospital for a mental health assessment.
"RCMP received a complaint of an unknown individual in the trunk of their vehicle, and Nanaimo members attended the scene and located exactly that," Manseau told CTV News on Friday.
The video shows RCMP officers talking to the man on scene.
