A Madison man was charged Wednesday with stalking for allegedly giving a runner from the UW-Madison womenâ??s cross country team unwanted gifts, following her and constructing a shrine to her outside the teamâ??s practice facility.
David Hose, 21, of Madison, is scheduled to appear in court Thursday. According to a criminal complaint, the 20-year-old woman told police that she didnâ??t know Hose before the incidents began in August.
The first incident, the complaint states, was outside a State Street bar, where the woman said a man later identified as Hose was acting so bizarrely that she took his picture to document who he was.
