CANBERRA (Reuters Life!) - An Australian man who for
four years used a tiny camera hidden in the toe of his
shoe to film up women's skirts on commuter trams has
been arrested by police.
The man used the device, hidden in a pair of black
sneakers, to film women's underwear, while a second
camera disguised as a music player captured images of
their faces to later match.
The man, in his 20s, was arrested after one woman
became suspicious of his behavior on a commuter tram
in Melbourne, a city of around 4 million, and spotted
the hidden lens, Australian newspapers reported on
Thursday.
Searching the man's home, police later seized
photographs and recording equipment showing the man
had been secretly filming up female dresses for at
least four years.
He is to be charged for stalking and being a public
nuisance, carrying a maximum 10-year jail term.
