White Man Faces Charges After Black Woman Was Followed
Police claim they are investigating after a white man followed a Black woman for two miles as she drove through "his" neighborhood to pick up dog food.
She turned down a side street to get away to no avail. The white man followed and demanded to know what she was doing there: “So what are you driving up Juniper Terrace for? I don’t feel safe with you driving around my neighborhood. What color are you?” He finally left after getting filmed and being asked to leave by the Black woman.
Groveland Police Chief Jeffrey Gillen said he is looking at potential charges: “This is just totally unacceptable and if that’s what was the driving force, that’s even more concerning. I’m looking at any and all charges we can file against this male subject and hold him accountable for the way he made that woman feel and how he treated her.”
In a statement from Town Finance Director Denise Dembkoski: "Groveland seeks to be a safe and welcoming community for all. Anyone should be able to drive or walk on any street without being made to feel like a criminal. I join in the outrage and collective anger felt by our residents but am moved by the support offered to the victim in this case.”
