Increasing reports indicate a man persistently trailing women and teenage girls to their homes in Adelaide.
This individual, labeled as a serial pest, has been captured on CCTV trailing women in Munro Para, both during the day and at night.
A woman, who uses the pseudonym Tam, recounted an incident where her teenage daughter and her friend were followed home from the Smithfield Plains skate park earlier this year.
“She was terrified,” Tam shared. “She called me at work, screaming, ‘Mum, check the camera, check the camera, this guy is following us! He won’t leave us alone!'”
Since that incident, the man has returned on multiple occasions.
“He even pushed his head through the door, specifically asking for my daughter,” Tam added.
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.
