Stranger Danger – Man Follows Woman at Kroger
A woman flagged down an officer at 9:30 am to report a disturbing incident at Kroger. She said she was at the pumps when she was approached by a man she thought was acting suspiciously. She said he acted as if he were getting gas but did not.
After she filled up her car, she headed to the main store lot to shop, and the man parked right next to her. He approached her and said, “You’re not from around here, are you?”
When she replied that she was, the man said, “Well, I’m not, and you look too good to be from around her.” The man then started walking quickly towards her, so she got back in her car and locked the doors.
She left the store parking lot, but the man followed her. The woman said she had to break a few traffic laws to lose him, but finally got away and flagged down an officer.
She said the man was driving a white SUV with a Kentucky tag. Officers searched the area for the suspect but could not locate him.
