Deon J. Hampton is a national reporter for NBC News.

A California woman filed a federal lawsuit this week against an Anaheim police officer, accusing him of sexually assaulting her four months after he first noticed her at an In-N-Out restaurant and used her license plate number to contact her. The woman, identified only as Jane Doe, also accuses Anaheim police officer Carlos Romero of battery and sexual assault in the suit filed in U.S. District Court in the Central District of California. The city of Anaheim is also named as a defendant.

The next day, she received a Facebook friend request from Romero, who confirmed through a direct message that he had retrieved her personal information by running her license plate number, according to the lawsuit. Romero asked for her phone number and the two began messaging, with the woman indicating she didn’t want a romantic relationship, according to the document. Over the next few months, Romero occasionally sent text messages to her and visited her home while on duty, the lawsuit says.
