Reports continue to surface about a man persistently trailing women and teenage girls to their homes in Adelaide.
Described as a habitual nuisance, this individual has been captured on CCTV, shadowing women in Munro Para during both daylight and nighttime hours.
In one incident, a woman, who we’ll call Tam to protect her identity, recounted the terrifying experience of her teenage daughter and a friend being followed from the Smithfield Plains skate park earlier this year.
“She was terrified,” Tam recalled. “She called me at work, screaming, ‘Mum, check the camera, there’s a guy following us! He won’t leave us alone.'”
Since that unsettling episode, the man has returned on several occasions.
“He poked his head right through the door, asking for my daughter directly,” Tam said.
Tam has spent hundreds of dollars installing cameras around her home due to concerns for their safety.
According to social media posts, Tam isn’t the only one who has been confronted by this pest.
Back in Munro Para, Kim was walking her dog when she said a man lunged at her.
“I tried to use my crutches to push him back and I asked my dog to rush at him,” Kim said.
“So she went him but he didn’t stop, he just kept coming.”
Another man passing by came over to intervene.
Kim still worries about the man who lunged at her and what he could do to other women.
“He seems to be a serial pest for women and only seems to really leaves us alone when a male steps in,” she said.
9News understands at least nine women have made reports against the man and they claim police aren’t taking action quick enough.
“I don’t feel like the police took it seriously,” Kim claimed.
