Police responded to the Golden Living Center on Saturday at 10:20 p.m. for a report of a suspicious person.
Officers spoke to an employee who said he was on Marsh Street on break with another employee. He said that, while they were walking back to Golden Living, a man came up to them and asked if they were gay.
The reporting employee said no, and said the other one asked if it would matter if they were. The man said it would, as it would be wrong for him to talk to them. The employee said that they walked in the side door and the man tried to follow them. They told him to leave, and he argued with them, according to the police report.
The employee added that the person lives on Marsh Street and frequents the area where Golden Living workers take breaks and consistently asks weird questions.
Police spoke with the man and told him he was not welcome on Golden Living's property.
