MOUNT VERNON, Iowa (AP) — A Marion man has been arrested after police say he took pictures of women dressing in an eastern Iowa college locker room. Police say 45-year-old Jeffrey Pospisil was arrested Friday and charged with invasion of privacy. The investigation began when students at Cornell College reported seeing a cellphone held in an open doorway leading to the locker room. Students alerted a coach, who found Pospisil in the area.

Pospisil, who was an employee with a business that provides custodial service for the college, told police he had only been texting on the phone, but a search of the phone found more than 100 images taken in the locker room as students were fully or partially nude. Pospisil was fired from his job and has been banned from the college.
