Man Arrested for GPS Stalking in Norwalk

0:00Norwalk police just arrested a 63-year-old man from Essex named Thomas Martin on electronic stalking charges after discovering a hidden, tracking device on someone's car. The whole thing started back on April 16th when officers got a report about the device tucked away in the vehicle's wheel well, prompting a quick response from the department. This case highlights how tech-like GPS trackers can turn into tools for harassment, making everyday folks feel constantly washed and vulnerable in. Their own routines, detectives took over, pinpointed Martin as the suspect, secured an arrest warrant, and nabbed him last Friday with bail set at $75,000. He's doing court today, and authorities are stressing that stalking like this won't fly in their town. This has been Hartford News Today, powered by AI.
