Serial upskirting suspect arrested in Madrid

Spanish police said they have arrested a man suspected of secretly recording videos of more than 500 women’s underwear, some of them minors, on public transport and in supermarkets.

A 53-year-old Colombian has been arrested after allegedly using a mobile phone concealed inside a backpack to take pictures up women’s skirts in Madrid without their consent, a practice known as “upskirting”.

He was caught in the act on the Madrid metro, a police statement said.
