An Oregon man was arrested and charged with stalking and harassing UConn women’s basketball star Paige Bueckers on Monday, according to ESPN’s Katie Barnes.

UConn Police arrested Robert Parmalee, 40, on Friday after several incidents where he allegedly threatened and harassed Bueckers in recent weeks and months. He was officially charged with breach of peace, electronic stalking and harassment on Monday, and was held on bond.

According to the report, UConn Police said that the school first learned of Parmalee in June after they received “rambling” emails from him in which he claimed he was a member of the royal family and he wanted to marry a member of the women’s basketball team.
