Per ESPN, Lewis was arrested on stalking charges in Indianapolis, Indiana yesterday. A native of Denton, Texas, Lewis was arrested at a hotel and has been charged with a Level 5 felony after sending Caitlin Clark a series of disturbing messages.
According to reports, Lewis sent Clark a series of threats and sexually violent messages through social media. In one message, the creep told Clark that he was driving past per home three times a day.
The mugshot of Lewis has been released:
According to court documents, Caitlin Clark saw the messages and even tried changing her appearances in public for her safety. Authorities previously warned Lewis to stop sending the threatening messages, but he claimed they were purely “imagination” and “a joke.”
Lewis ignored the warning from authorities and continued sending Clark the disturbing messages. He faces up to six years in prison and a potential fine of $10,000.
We’ll be sure to provide more details on the legal matters when they become available.

Caitlin Clark also led Indiana to a 20-20 finish for their first playoff appearance since the 2016 campaign. The Fever were eliminated by the Connecticut Sky in the opening round of the playoffs, but it was nonetheless a major step forward for the long-struggling franchise for a team that has the new face of the WNBA to build around.
