This petrified woman noticed a 'creepy' individual begin to follow her, which led to the incident being escalated to the point of a passing dog walker coming to her aid.

Kyra Pellant was walking home on the streets of Los Angeles, California, when she noticed a middle-aged man begin to follow her down every street she was taking on April 27.

She began recording in case of something happening, like an attack or worse according to Kyra, so prepared her pepper spray.

Kyra began to try and evade the stalker by crossing the road but he followed suit and crossed with her to remain within eyeshot.

Luckily, Kyra happened across a dog walker who also noticed the peculiar behaviour and she took refuge by his side.

The dog walker then kindly shooed off the 'stalker' and made sure that Kyra was safe.

Kyra's incredibly unsettling video gathered over 5.7 million views on TikTok.
