Police reports

Jason Lamontagne, a senior in the College of Visual and Performing Arts, was advised by Syracuse police that he must stop contacting a former co-worker at the Campus Copy Center on the 700 block of University Avenue or he could be arrested for harassment, according to a Syracuse Police report.

His former co-worker said she has an ongoing problem with Lamontagne ever since he was fired. The co-worker contacted the police a previous time on Feb. 20 concerning his harassment, the report stated.

She said she received another voicemail from Lamontagne on Thursday at about 8:30 p.m. His tone of voice was not elevated and he made no threats, according to the report.

She said she ended her friendship with Lamontagne when he couldn’t accept that she only wanted to be friends and nothing was going on between them, the report stated.

Even though Lamontagne has not attacked her in the past, she said she thinks he might be crazy and might cause her injury, according to the report.



The police contacted Lamontagne to discuss the issue on Friday at about 12:30 a.m., the report stated.

When Lamontagne arrived, the police advised him of the incident, at which time Lamontagne handed the police a micro-cassette player and a tape, according to the report.

The conversation on the tape was friendly and Lamontagne’s co-worker never advised him not to call her. At the end of the conversation, Lamontagne said, ‘Call me when you get all your stuff done,’ and his co-worker said, ‘OK,’ the report stated.

The police told Lamontagne not to call his former co-worker or to go by her residence at any time. If he continues to call her, he could be arrested for harassment, according to the report.
