Stalked during my Walk today...

He was definately up to no good.
You on the other hand handled this very well.
No doubt you have replayed the scenario so many times in your mind to try and think of other things you can do in the future should it happen again.
Are you sure he did not see which house you live in? If he did he may be back. Beef up the security of your home!
Let the neighbors know what happened so they can also keep an eye out for this guy.

Warmest wishes,
Anthony
 
I am going to see if I can email the Simpsonville PD about the encounter. We're visiting family this week, so I won't be able to go in til next week. Thanks everyone for the encouragement!
 
Update: I have emailed the incident to the head of the Investigation Dept. at our local PD. Will post if I get a response.
 
Update again:

Email response from my local PD:

C_Carson;

I have received your email and looked at the video. I apreciate you letting us know about this, and I will look into it. If you should happen to see the vehicle parked at a residence in your neighborhood, please call me and let me know the address. I would also like a copy of the video. I could not download it from Photobucket.

Thanks!

Lt Threlkeld;
I was not able to attach the entire video, so I edited it down to only the encounter with the strange man. If you need the full video, please just let me know. I will let you know if I see him or the vehicle again. I appreciate your looking into the matter.

Thank you!

I then received an email letting me know they had identified the driver and he had been spoken to.
I have emailed him back thanking him for the update and asking how to start the FOIA process, which I picked up today.

The investigating detective shared my report with the Chief of Police, since he lives in my neighborhood. On 5/4/12, the Chief spotted the suspicious vehicle and pulled it over. He identified the driver. The driver admitted to the incident and stated he did not intend to scare me. He said he was going through a divorce and lived alone a couple streets away. The Chief advised him not the approach people the way he did, and the driver stated he was sorry and understood.

What weirds me out is the report lists him as 58 years old. He's older than my dad, and going through a divorce, and saw no issue with driving past a young mother 30 some years his junior multiple times and asking such odd questions.
 
And people give LEO's a bad rap. Please. I'

m glad you reported it. You may have just saved that guy from going insane and brought him back to reality.

Exactly. Well done on your part and also on the PDs part. Not sure how big your town or where you live, but I doubt (sadly) that here in Summerville it wouldn't of been investigated in such a manner.
