A Texas man is behind bars after harassing, threatening and tracking his ex-girlfriend for months, Lone Star State law enforcement says.
Dylan Travis Gonzalez, 34, stands accused of one count of stalking, according to Bexar County court records reviewed by Law&Crime.
The defendant was arrested over the weekend on a charge tied to an offense in September, court records show.
The former couple broke up in April when the victim ended the relationship, police said.

The victim in the case, however, told investigators the behavior dates back a bit further, according to an arrest report obtained by San Antonio-based NBC and The CW affiliate WOAI.
Before the alleged stalking began, the pair had been together for roughly one year and eight months, the woman told police.
But instead of accepting the end of things, Gonzalez started showing up at the woman’s workplace, threatening her via text messages and calling her repeatedly, according to the charging document.
One such message allegedly included an explicit threat on the woman’s life. That message reads: “I’ll kill you … I should just run right into your a—,” according to the San Antonio Police Department.
A similar message attributed to Gonzalez reads: “I’ll be waiting for you … I’m going to kill you tonight,” law enforcement said.
The woman also told investigators that her ex often followed her in his vehicle and that the defendant had been captured by her home security cameras damaging property and driving past her residence.
At some point, the woman said, she feared there was something wrong with her own car, so she took her vehicle to a dealership where a tracking device was found, according to the arrest report. That discovery occurred on Sept. 14 — which aligns with the specific incident date of Sept. 13 cited by police in the charging document.
Aside from the vehicle allegations, the woman, who works in real estate, said Gonzalez would frequently appear at her work meetings and even showed up at the homes of her potential clients.
The woman, whose name is not being released, additionally told police that during one incident, the defendant attacked her with a dumbbell at her home, according to the arrest report.
After his arrest on Nov. 7, Gonzalez was detained in the Bexar County Jail and quickly posted $25,000 bond, court records show.
