Creep in Coconut Grove

Please delete if not allowed.

There’s a sexual predator who roams in Coconut Grove, maybe elsewhere but I’m not sure. He drives a black BMW but I haven’t been able to get his license plate number which frustrates me because the cops can’t do anything without that. He approached me months ago asking for directions to the Palmetto. After I directed him, he continued to make small talk and kept trying to keep me in the conversation even though I was trying to walk my dog — I noticed after a few minutes that he was literally masturbating during this conversation. I panicked and ran off to get away from him.

Unfortunately I have been approached by him twice since then, the most recent time being late last night when he made a u-turn after seeing me walking my dog to again ask me for directions to the Palmetto. I immediately called him out on being the same perv from before which he denied (as if I’m some idiot who would forget the guy jacking off in his car in broad fucking daylight) and then sped off after I yelled at him to get the fuck away. The picture I snapped was unfortunately too dark and blurry to make out his license plate number so again, there is little police can do without this information.

I don’t know what I’m hoping for from making this post — maybe just wanting to make people aware that this creep exists and to keep an eye out for him. I have felt so unsafe in my supposedly “safe” neighborhood since first encountering him and I dread him making anyone else feel this way. I wish I had at least thrown the bag of my dog’s poop in his open car window but alas, we can’t always decide how we’ll react when confronted with someone who sexually harassed us…

If a black BMW drives up alongside you and some guy with massive stupid fucking diamond studs asks you for directions to the Palmetto, please keep your guard up and maybe snag the license plate number I couldn’t so this fucker can face the consequences he deserves. Be safe out there, ya’ll.
