Do they really "Raid" homes for music?

Police raided a man's home after his Amazon Alexa-enabled device blasted loud music and 'threw a party on its own' at 2am.

Angry neighbours called police after they were woken up by the noise coming from Oliver Haberstroh's flat.

ut the flat was empty as the 29-year-old was out with friends.

He says the music turned on even though he didn't give any instructions to the voice-activated virtual assistant.

Oliver had suspected the smart gadget had acted on its own, but Amazon later found that it was remotely activated by a music streaming app on his smartphone.

At least once a week I hear mine randomly playing in the other room. Heard me or someone on the street incorrectly. It's amusing but also a little annoying.

Would be nice if you could "lock" the Echo to your own voice, like Siri, as an additional feature.
