Police Beat: 700 emails, the answer is no, and damage at the Lib
November 15, 2017
Along with a home invasion and a man indecently exposing his penis, here are some other crimes that happened on campus last week.
“I wrote you 700 letters. I wrote you every day for a year.”
A female student called UNF police after her ex-boyfriend repeatedly tried to contact her by sending over 700 emails, and then confronted her about their relationship in Starbucks.
According to the police report, the couple was in an on-and-off-again relationship for about a year before she broke up with him in October. The female student told officials her ex continuously tried to talk to her in person by going to her home, or showing up at places he knows she visited regularly. She also told officials she blocked him on all of her social media accounts, and blocked his phone number.
The report states the ex-boyfriend continued to contact her through email sending around 200 emails before Oct. 10. She replied telling him to stop contacting her in any way, but he refused, sending more than 500 emails between then and Nov. 7, according to the report. That’s around 18 emails per day.
Officials spoke with the ex-boyfriend who said he felt like she still cared for him, which is why he continued talking to her.
The ex-boyfriend told officials he will not be contacting the female student again, now that police have been involved. The female student wanted the incident to be documented just in case he continued talking to her, and told officials she will charge him for stalking if he did.
He wanted sex, she wanted the police.
A UNF female student reported a suspicious male on Nov. 7 after he asked if she wanted to watch or join him having sex.
The female student was driving in the Founder’s Hall parking lot when she saw the suspect in a vehicle similar to an acquaintance of hers, according to the report. She told officials she got out of her car and approached him; she said the man was speaking too low for her to hear, so she got closer.
The report states the suspect asked about a male friend who lived nearby with a female roommate. He claimed to have plans to have sex with one while the other watched, according to the report. After she said no, he reportedly asked if she wanted to join or watch him have sex.
The female student told officials this wasn’t her first encounter with the man. She said the same man asked her several questions in July about being a model and about a dating website in the same parking lot. She saw him speaking with another person, and she took a photo of the man’s car.
Police were able to read the license plate from the photo and found the person the car was registered to. There were no wants or warrants on the person.
Police referred this case to the detective unit, and it is an ongoing investigation.
Study Hard
A custodial employee reported damage on the second floor of the library, according to UNFPD.
Police say unknown suspect(s) used a tool to remove screws from the second floor tables. The report states by removing the screws and moving the tables, the suspect(s) pulled up the carpeting, damaging the concrete and the partition at one of the computer workstations. It was around $400 in damage, according to the report.
Due to the lack of information and suspects, patrol efforts were suspended.
