CHICAGO (CBS) -- An Elgin man has been charged with hiding a video camera in the women's restroom of a business in the northwest suburb.

Officers were called at 8:05 a.m. Monday after an employee at a business in the 2000 block of Galvin Drive found the hidden camera in the women's bathroom, according to a statement from Elgin police.
