Walpole Police Arrest Man Accused Of 'Upskirting' Incidents
WALPOLE (CBS) – Police have arrested a man accused of multiple "upskirting" incidents was arrested on Thursday.
Police say Andrew Gavin of Canton took inappropriate pictures of women several times in the Walpole Mall and other locations in Westwood and Norwood.
A woman inside Jo-Ann Fabric in Walpole told police last week a man had allegedly taken an upskirt photograph of her before running towards the exit.
The victim chased the suspect to the front of the store, and though she was unable to catch up to him, she took a clear photograph as he left the area.
Police said that was a key piece of evidence, and they were able to identify Gavin as a suspect and arrest him.
Gavin is slated to be arraigned Thursday afternoon in Wrentham District Court.
Police said Gavin "seems remorseful" about the incidents.
