A woman fled a washroom in Stauffer library last month when a man reached under her stall with a cellphone and tried to record her.
The 21-year-old man entered the women’s washroom at around 6 p.m. on Dec. 18.
After the victim ran from the washroom, she alerted a erby and together they confronted the man when he left the washroom.
After a short conversation, the man left, and the victim ed campus security.
“In this case, the victim did the right thing by ing Campus Security and Emergency Services,” Todd Zimmerman, director of campus security wrote in an email to The Journal.
Working with campus security to identify the offender, Kingston police were able to arrest the 21-year-old on Jan. 9 and charge him with voyeurism.
The perpetrator was released on the same day of his arrest under certain conditions and a court date yet to be set.
The University would not disclose whether the man was a Queen’s student.
