Good.

But what the newly fired employee (discreetly, from a distance).

[BlueDragon]

meant to write "watch" not what. My eyes are failing. Still too stubborn to break down and go to an optometrist for a prescription for eye-glasses.

But better expressed than "watch" would be "keep tabs on" the guy.

Follow any social media the guy has.

Circulate among regional LE the man's photograph, address, make and photo of vehicle, any known habits, lists of associated.

Do not contact. No shake downs. Be smart, not paranoid, and don't let the guy know a thing...
