Sex Offender Stalks Boise Girl at South Jr High

Imagine the nightmare of your young daughter being stalked by this sex offender at her Jr High.  That's exactly what this man did to a 13-year-old Boise girl at South Jr High School.

32-year-old Ryan Harrell followed the same 13-year-old girl in his pickup truck at least two dozen times when she was walking home from South Jr High.  One time Harrell made lewd sexual gestures at her at the intersection of Overland and Shoshone Street.

Harrell was always driving the same silver Ford Ranger pickup.  The girl's mother eventually was able to take a picture of the truck which ultimately ended in Harrell's downfall.

Fortunately Harrell has been arrested and booked into the Ada County Jail.   He's facing charges of sexual abuse of a minor under 16 and first-degree stalking.  His bond is set at $500,000.  Boise Police believe Harrell has other victims and are urging those with info to come forward.  Please contact Crime Stoppers at 343-COPS.
