Ex-cop nabbed for stalking stranger for over a year.

This is as close to the ideal of "creepiness" you can get without wearing clown makeup. From NY Daily News:

A Queens Criminal Court officer and former cop relentlessly stalked a young stranger for a year, officials charge.

Christopher Ofee approached his victim a half-dozen times in a bizarre ritual - donning wigs to disguise himself and repeatedly asking her the same question about a bus route, authorities said Tuesday.

Ofee, 43, was nabbed about 10:30 a.m. Sunday near an isolated Queens bus stop after the woman called cops when he walked up to her.

She said that after the ex-cop walked up to her, he got back in his car and drove back and forth, staring at her as she waited for the bus at 81st St. near Ditmars Blvd., according to the arrest report. When police arrived, Ofee tried to flee by driving across the street. He then emerged from his car with his pants unzipped, according to the arrest report.

The 30-year-old woman, whose name is being withheld by the Daily News, told cops it was the sixth time Ofee had approached her in the past year to ask about the bus route.

She said she had no other dealings with him.

Police found multiple wigs in his car, which he wore to conceal his identity from his victim, police sources said.
