walked into
Crossed the threshold
Walked into describes entering a place on foot: She walked into the room.
More often, it means encountering something unexpectedly or blundering into a situation: He walked into a trap, You walked right into that one.
The phrase suggests lack of awareness—someone who walks into trouble didn't see it coming.
