An Iowa City man wanted on warrants for allegedly continually harassing a woman has been taken into custody.
According to arrest reports, 43-year-old Ajais Wheeldon was issued a harassment warning against the victim on September 9th. Since that time, he reportedly has been continually sending unwanted, alarming, and intimidating messages to the victim. He has also called the woman.
Police say that on December 9th, Wheeldon called the woman and stated that killing her was an option. The woman believed it to be a credible threat. That led to a warrant for his arrest being issued on December 15th.
Wheeldon was taken into custody at around 1:45 this morning. He’s charged with 1st and 3rd degree Harassment, and could be sentenced to up to 25 months in prison if convicted.
