A 32-year-old man is accused of following a woman and attempting to force his way into her Scarborough home earlier this week.

Article content

Toronto Police say officers began investigating the frightening case of alleged criminal harassment after the woman reported she noticed a man she did not know “following her home” in the area of Warden and Danforth Aves. on Monday.

Prevented man from entering

“He attempted to force his way into her home,” police alleged in a statement released Wednesday. “She was able to prevent him from entering and called police.”

No further details of the alleged incident were immediately released.

Suspect identified and arrested

However, investigators subsequently identified a suspect and took him into custody.

Djibril Youssouf, of Toronto, is charged with one count of criminal harassment and one count of attempted break-and-enter.

The accused was scheduled to appear in court for a bail hearing on Tuesday.

Investigators have released a photo of the accused out of concern for the possibility of other alleged victims.

Anyone with information regarding this investigation, particularly anyone who believes they have experienced a similar incident, is urged to call police at 416-808-4100.
