Creep blows up foot with upskirt cam

- BY KEITH PERRY

A PERVERT blasted himself in the foot when his secret shoe-mounted upskirt camera exploded.

The creep gave himself up to police but was not charged because the device blew up before he managed to take any shots.

He was treated in hospital for minor burns in the US state of Wisconsin, where the offence carries a maximum three-and-ahalf years in prison and a €8,580 fine.

The police log read: “He had purchased a shoe camera he intended to use to take ‘upskirt’ videos of females, but the camera battery had exploded.”

A bill is currently being drafted in the UK to make upskirting illegal after a first attempt was blocked by Tory MP Sir Christophe­r Chope.
