Information The complainant, a BYU supervisor at the Culinary Support Center, requested that an information report be documented regarding a former employee who was terminated approximately one month ago. The complainant's concern was not about the former employee herself, but rather about her husband, who contacted the complainant yesterday. The complainant reported that the husband was not threatening or abusive but came across as "strange," as he kept pleading for his wife to regain her job.
Suspicious The complainant reported that she was walking south on East Campus Drive, on the west side of the road, when a male walking north grabbed her arm as he passed by. He held on to her arm briefly and said, "Hi." The complainant responded by saying "Hi" back, after which the subject let go and continued walking north. She found his behavior odd and believed that the individual, a white male of student age, might be mentally challenged. The complainant requested that an information report be filed.
