An onslaught of disparaging e-mail, text and telephone messages has plagued a Tibetan shopkeeper in San Rafael following the Olympic torch run in San Francisco on Wednesday.
Jamyang Nordup, 50, a former monk and owner of Tibetan Culture House, a retail shop at 1223 Fourth St., said he has received hundreds of harassing messages since Tuesday night. None has been a death threat, he said.
The sources are unknown, although Nordup said he suspects the messages are coming from overseas via the Chinese government.
"I feel like the whole thing is a set-up of the government," he said. "This is not individuals."
Police are investigating the matter as a harassment complaint, spokeswoman Margo Rohrbacher said.
