Stalking teen

Here's a "classic" example of someone stalking, and most certainly evaluating, an intended victim, and then striking as she approaches her resident.

It is scary that many people are not aware about 1. What to do if they are being followed, and 2. The fact that perpetrators usually strikes (make up their mind to strike) at a certain time.
This is usually as the intended victim is getting to his/her destination, or close to his/her destination.

Story:
Canada -- A 28-year-old Vancouver man was in court this week in connection with an alleged sexual assault on a teen in Burquitlam.

Last Friday, a 16-year-old girl boarded SkyTrain at Lougheed Town Centre to go shopping at MetroTown, according to Coquitlam RCMP.

During the ride, she noticed a man staring at her. He got off at the MetroTown station, followed her around the Burnaby mall and continued to follow her on her way home.

At around 4:45 p.m., Coquitlam RCMP said, the man sexually assaulted the girl just steps from her home.

The teen broke free and ran inside, and her father called police and watched the suspect as he was leaving. He kept the suspect in sight until policed arrived.

The suspect is "well known to police" for similar offences, police said.
