It does sound a bit strange.
And the suggestion of windows and balcony doors not being locked, and a ladder being left near the bathroom window, in a community with tight security and residents supposedly paranoid about crime, does not seem to make much sense either.

Presumably OP will be required to give an account of his movements that day, so we'll see if he had spent part of it drinking his earl grey in the sunshine or not.

Might be an element of truth to the fan story, because it was a hot night. The fan could have been used outside on the balcony during the day or early evening before they retired and was left out. If it became even hotter in the bedroom overnight then it would make sense bring the fan back in.
The radiologist Johan Stipp's bedroom patio door was also open around the same time, which was why he could hear the gun shots and screams. He also stated because it was a hot night, the door was propped open by a chair.
