MORGAN HILL — Two Colombian nationals were arrested Wednesday morning on suspicion of stalking a woman in Morgan Hill, police said.
On Tuesday, the victim called police to report a man had knocked on the door to her home around 8:10 a.m. and then tried to force open a side gate, according to the Morgan Hill Police Department. He was not successful and walked away from the area.
Surveillance cameras at the victim’s residence were knocked out during the incident, leading the victim to believe the suspect had used a Wi-Fi jammer, police said.
Just before 8 a.m. Wednesday, the same victim called police to report she was being followed by a white Chevrolet sedan that had been parked outside her home, according to police. Officers stopped the car and detained both occupants without incident.
The passenger was identified as the same man from Tuesday’s incident, police said. Both he and the driver were arrested and booked into Santa Clara County jail on suspicion of criminal conspiracy, stalking, prowling, vandalism and providing a false name.
The investigation “remains active and ongoing,” police said.
