Pervert on campus?

Police have arrested a suspect who allegedly was taking pictures in a women's washroom at British Columbia Institute of Technology.

The suspect was arrested on BCIT's Burnaby campus Monday.

According to an email sent to staff and students, an "unknown male was observed using a cell phone to capture images" in the washroom.
