According to the Harbourside Police Facebook page, neighbors were worried about what they thought was a violent situation:

Die die!!,' with the sounds of furniture being tossed around the unit." type="quote" author="Harbourside LAC - NSW Police Force" authordesc="Facebook" isquoteoftheday="false"%

When numerous squad cars arrived at the scene, they were confused to find only one man, who adamantly denied there was anyone else in the apartment.

It turns out that all the screaming had come from him, as he tried to kill a very large, scary spider.
