Darian was stalked by a stranger he met through a random act of violence. 

When Darian's female friend was sexually assaulted during a night out, they left the scene, but the perpetrator followed and physically assaulted Darian. Days later, a friend of the perpetrator confronted them, saying they should die because they called the police.

The man started showing up in places Darian frequented, physically and verbally attacking Darian. He did not know the identity of this man but was finally able to get a clear photo during one of his attacks, and the police were able to identify him.

At first, Darian believed these were random crimes due to being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but now sees that this person was using stalking to commit hate crimes against him.
