A woman on Oak Circle reported that one of two men who came to her house recently selling meat has been threatening her.
According to the incident report, the woman said a black male and a white male came to her house to sell meat and she let them in her home. She said the black man took off his jacket while they were showing her the meat and he left it there when they left.
A few days later, she said the man texted her, asking for his jacket. She said she told him she would leave it on the porch but he asked her not to, since he was not in town. She said the two began texting each other over the past several weeks but that she still did not know his name. She said she eventually asked him to stop texting her and he began to call her. She told him that she had hidden cameras on her property and he allegedly told her “have you ever had a door kicked in and shot in the head?” She said that’s when she got scared. She said she then looked in his jacket and found two condoms. Officer Michael Moore took possession of the jacket as well as a receipt with the name of the meat company and the phone number, and the suspect’s phone number. The woman was told to contact the sheriff’s office if the man contacted her again.
