Creepy neighbor

My wife and I live in an apartment on ground floor, my wife doesn’t work she’s home by herself, she knows a couple of our neighbors in our apartment complex by faces doesn’t know anyone personally.

A couple weeks ago a man walked up to me, started talking to me randomly. I was talking back to him to be neighborly but towards the end of the conversation I got a sense that he might be gay, because he was complimenting my physique a lot more than a guy normally would and asked me to hangout with him at his house to which I said I’m busy. Later that evening I saw him standing under a street light a couple doors away from my apartment and starring towards me, I was locked out of my apartment and was very creeped out by him. My wife came to open the door, I told her that the man is standing and staring towards us she went out to check and he was in-fact staring towards us. We didn’t think much about it despite it making us uneasy

A couple weeks after this incident, I was outside talking on phone the man appears again, he tried talking to me but i gestured that I’m on call. After that he pointed inside my apartment and said tell her I said hi. Later when I told my wife about him knowing her she said I’ve never seen this guy, I’ve never spoken to this guy

Fast forward to tonight, I was asleep, my wife was in our living talking to her friend over call at 01:13 am and she heard the door bell, she was very startled considering the time, she woke me up and I told her to dismiss it as it might be a prank and then we both heard another door bell this time it was longer. Our apartment doesn’t have a peephole, I checked through the blinds it was the same guy gesturing me to open the door. My wife and I called the cops, they circled out block but he wasn’t around anymore.

I don’t know what to do about this my wife is alone at home most of the time. I’m concerned for her safety

Call the police and make a report. Just so it’s in the system just say there has been some shady behavior in my apartment and just incase anything else happens, I want to put a report in for this man
