Dealing with a stalker is stressful, and even a protection order doesn’t seem to slow many of them down. Officers responded to a Wheelersburg residence after a woman said a man, she’d filed a temporary protection order against kept calling her. She contacted officers about the issue first at 1:30 p.m., and they attempted to speak to the man but could not locate him.
Deputies were back out at the scene at 9:42 p.m. after the woman said he was still harassing her.
In fact, the man called twice while officers were on the scene. An officer even advised the man who they were and why they were there. No direct threats were made, the man just kept hanging up.
Officers headed to the man’s home to speak to him, but he wasn’t there.
