San Diego police are searching for an alleged peeper accused of holding a device, possibly cell phone, to look underneath a woman’s dress as she did her grocery shopping at a local supermarket.
According to investigators, the incident happened on June 6 around 4 p.m. at a Vons store located at 665 Saturn Blvd. An unknown man walked up behind a victim while she was distracted and crouched down next to her holding a device underneath her dress.
Police believe that device may have been a cell phone used to look underneath the victim’s clothes.
A store employee witnessed the incident and told the victim what happened. It was then reported to police who shared details for the first time Thursday.
The suspect walked out of the store and was never caught. He was captured on surveillance tape and police have now released images of the alleged peeper in hopes of tracking down more information. He’s described as a white male, 6-foot-1 to 6-foot-3, 180 to 200 pounds with a thin build. He was bald with a goatee and wore a black shirt, blue jeans shorts and sandals.
The case remains under investigation. Anyone with information should contact the SDPD’s Southern Division at (619) 424-0400 or Crime Stoppers at (888) 580-8477. Tipsters can remain anonymous and may be eligible for a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.
