Police: Man stroked vacuum nozzle in offensive gesture toward woman at Denton Buc-ee's

DENTON -- A woman told police she left Buc-ee’s on Thursday afternoon “scared and angry” after a man in the parking lot made an obscene gesture toward her while she was vacuuming her car, according to a police report.

The caller reported that an hour earlier, she was vacuuming the inside of her car at Buc-ee’s when she noticed a man nearby, looking directly at her and stroking the nozzle of a vacuum “as if he were stroking himself or masturbating.” The man, who was driving a white work truck, was parked two spaces away from her, according to the report.

She was no longer at the travel center on 2800 S. Interstate 35E when she called the Denton Police Department around 1:53 p.m. The report says after the incident, she immediately left because she felt scared and angry.

She reported that he didn’t stop the gesture despite the fact that multiple people were able to see him. She told police she felt offended by the gesture and was able to give them a description of his appearance.

She saw the business logo on his van. Searched it on her phone. Called his boss to tell him what was going on then informed him that she had. He was a puddle by the time she left the parking lot.
