Former NC State defensive end Joseph Boletepeli, who transferred out of the program several years back, was arrested this week and charged with both sending threatening messaged to Dave Doeren and stalking him, per WRAL.

Both charges are misdemeanors, and Boletepeli is currently under house arrest. Per the report, he has sent threatening messages to Doeren through social media on multiple occasions, though it was a cryptic tweet earlier this week (which appears to have been deleted), not long after the horrific shooting at UVA, that compelled Doeren to involve the police this time.

Boletepeli has also made some visits to the Murphy Center, and NC State increased security at the football facility this week.
