Personally, I would tell him to leave you alone. If he doesn't stop, you can go to court and obtain a restraining order to prohibit harassment. (Telephoning, stalking you, confronting you, harassing you.)

He may have filed a police report, but that does not necessarily mean that you will be charged or even arrested. Depending on the charges, they may be subject to a statute of limitations. I suggest keeping the witnesses phone numbers and address handy in cases charges are filed.
