Man arrested for following women in Halifax
Police have charged a man after receiving reports of women being followed in Halifax last week.
In three separate incidents on September 10th and 11th, women reported being followed by a man into their apartment buildings near Spring Garden Road in Halifax. In one incident, the man followed the woman up the elevator and to her floor. She was able to re-enter the elevator without him to go and seek help. In another incident, the man followed the woman to her apartment unit and left after she entered. In the third incident, the man followed the woman to her apartment unit and attempted to enter her unit but was unsuccessful. There were no reports of physical injuries.
Investigators determined that the same man was responsible for all three incidents. He was identified and arrested on September, 13th without incident.
Pradeep Kuppala, 29, appeared in Halifax provincial court yesterday to face charges of:
Criminal Harassment (x3), Mischief (x2), and
Break and Enter.
Anyone who believes they are being followed or observes suspicious behaviour is encouraged to report it to police immediately by calling 902-490-5020. If there is an immediate threat to personal safety, call 911.
