A North Belle Vernon woman had a new batch of charges filed against her after allegedly making dozens of harassing phone calls to and stalking her ex-boyfriend. 

Pamela S. Gamble, 44, of Broad Avenue was charged in two separate cases this week — the first with four counts each of harassment and criminal trespassing, and one count of stalking – repeatedly commit acts to cause fear. 

Around 4:45 p.m. Sunday, borough police responded to alleged victim Steven Cornelius’ Grant Street home, according to an affidavit of probable cause. 

Both Cornelius and a neighbor allegedly witnessed Gamble on his front porch, pounding on his door and screaming obscenities. She had allegedly done the same thing on Cornelius’ property before running away from the scene at least four times, the affidavit states.
