DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — An 18-year-old Ankeny man has been arrested after being accused of recording men in bathrooms at Des Moines Area Community College and Principal Park, a minor league baseball stadium in Des Moines.

The Des Moines Register reports the man was arrested Friday morning and faces a charge of invasion of privacy after a man reported to police that he saw someone stick a device under a divider of a bathroom stall he was in while urinated on Sept. 9.

Police say the victim confronted the suspect, and a police search of the suspect’s cellphone revealed numerous videos of men being recorded in restrooms.
