On Sunday, deputies said they received a report about a suspicious person on Kenbridge Drive in Clemmons. Investigators later identified 25-year-old Trevor Antonia Lewis as the person found under a car. 

After an investigation, deputies said Lewis followed a woman home from the Walmart on Kester Mill Road in Winston-Salem.

On Monday, deputies said they issued warrants for his arrest.

Lewis was arrested and is behind bars without bond due to committing this offense while out on pretrial release for previous stalking charges.
