SCOTTSDALE — A Scottsdale man is facing multiple charges after police say he used a slingshot to cause an estimated $100,000 in damages to a condominium complex over several months while also stalking his ex-wife.

According to Scottsdale police, the investigation began after numerous reports of shattered windows at a complex near 75th Street and Camelback Road.

Investigators say a 44-year-old man allegedly used a slingshot to launch rocks at the building.

ABC15 has chosen not to share the name of the man to help protect the identity of others involved.

Police say they believe the man was targeting the home of a person his ex-wife was dating.
