LaGrange police are looking for a man accused of stalking a woman and have reason to believe he won’t stop until he kills her or is arrested.

The suspect, John Horn, 34, for whom police have no current address, has a warrant for aggravated stalking.

“He has told (the woman’s) father several times that he fully intends on killing her,” investigator Colleen Hewett said.

Horn also would frequent the woman’s work place after a permanent restraining order was placed on him, Hewett said. In addition to stalking, Horn has a history of domestic violence charges.

“The victim is a total wreck any time he gets near her as she’s in fear for her life,” Hewett said.

Horn was last seen in early January at Fellowship Deliverance Ministries Inc. at 207 W. Mulberry St., where he was asked to leave by the staff.

Horn is of medium height, weighs about 145 pounds and has brown hair and blue eyes. Anyone with information was asked to call police at (706) 883-2603 or Crime Stoppers at (706) 812-1000.
