Brian Knouse, 44 of Mechanicsburg, PA, was arrested in South Middletown Township on April 26 after attempting to contact a woman 45 times in a 24-hour period, police say.
Knouse went to the woman’s home even after she told him to stop contacting her, says PSP.
Knouse has a pattern criminal behavior, having previously plead guilty to charges in York and Cumberland counties for public intoxication, DUIs, harassment and assaults starting in 2016 according to court documents.

He currently has open cases in York County related to two separate 2018 incidents; one is for assault and harassment, and the other is for indecent assault of a person under 13 and corruption of minors, as stated in court documents.
