A woman who filmed a man following her for 30 minutes in Vancouver said the person arrested by police is the wrong man.
The issue stems from an incident posted by Jamie Coutts to social media, where her video showed a man following her around Vancouver. Coutts first began to be suspicious when she left the Shoppers Drug Mart near Granville and Dunsmuir streets Wednesday (March 17) evening and she sensed someone sticking close behind her.

Instead, he stood in place staring blankly at her, she said in a caption. When she told him he was walking too close, he B次元官网网址渟aid nothing.B次元官网网址�
Coutts filed a report to Vancouver police and on Saturday, police said they identified a person of interest in her case. A 33-year-old Vancouver man was arrested and held in custody with assault charges recommended after he allegedly attacked a female victim in downtown Vancouver.
Police said the investigation into CouttsB次元官网网址� stalking case is ongoing, but she posted to social media to say the man arrested was not the man following her.
B次元官网网址淭his man is still not found,B次元官网网址� Coutts said in a social media post featuring a still of the man stalking her in the video. B次元官网网址淭he one who was arrested is a different guy.B次元官网网址�
