Man arrested in Yuma for stalking victim from online Discord app

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A man was arrested after the victim called about stalking, according to Yuma Police Department (YPD).

YPD says the stalking began about six years ago on an online app called Discord.

The victim ended contact with the man she was talking to, but the suspect's behavior became disturbing, according to YPD.

The 19-year-old suspect was identified as Filip Lipinski, a U.S. citizen living in Denmark, and was recorded to have flown to Yuma on three different occasions starting from January 2022.

Reports say Lipinski was sighted following the victim and her sibling in Yuma.

According to YPD, Lipinski moved to the Yuma area in fall of 2025.

On Friday, March 27, 2026, police officers and FBI agents arrested Lipinski and searched his apartment with the use of a warrant.

Lipinski is facing seven counts, including three felonies.

Anyone with information on this case is encouraged to call YPD at (928) 373-4700 or 78-CRIME to remain anonymous.
