Lawrenceville investigators learned that the suspect went inside a home to hide from officers. Officials said a second ‘peeping tom’ victim came forward while officers were still at the home investigating.

The suspect was arrested and charged with peeping tom, burglary, entering auto, and loitering and prowling. The suspect’s age and identity are being withheld until detectives finish their investigation.

LPD said oftentimes these incidents go unreported to police. The Lawrenceville Police Department is asking anyone living in the area of Grayson Highway and Forest Place and Kubol Drive to check their doorbell or exterior cameras for any footage that might help with this case.
