Parents confront voyeur

Police are investigating after dramatic showdown between parents and a man who allegedly took pictures up a young girl's skirt in Coquitlam.

​Cellphone images taken by the parents show a man being handcuffed by RCMP after they accused him of filming the seven-year-old child.

"He had not just footage of my daughter, but also other children, and only children," the mother said after she confiscated the man's phone.

"He had knelt down and gotten this low angle shot as she tied her shoes. It's videos of her panties," she told CTV. "There was no second guessing what he had done."

The group confronted the alleged voyeur inside a department store after the mother said her daughter was trying on some rollerblades.

The 69-year-old Surrey man is under investigation, but was released without charges.
