There's no law that says you can't actively engage someone you think is committing a crime. There is such a thing as a citizen's arrest.
exactly.

if there are break ins in your neighborhood and you see someone sneaking around none of you would follow? You'd just call the police?
How about if some funny looking guy was walking around a school yard, eyeing little girls? You'd call the police and go home? Im a wimp but I would keep my eye on them until the police arrive.
Based on 911 call, thats exactly what zim was doing. no crime there at all. you can spin it as stalking but the defense will spin it as civic duty.
