NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Another costumed character has apparently been caught misbehaving in Times Square.

Jose Vasquez, 44, was charged with multiple counts of sex abuse and forcible touching after police said they saw him groping women in Times Square while dressed as Woody from “Toy Story,” WCBS 880’s Marla Diamond reported Friday.

Vasquez will be back in court on Jan. 21. His bond was set at $1,500.

The Times Square Alliance is now calling for greater regulations of costumed characters.

“This is the latest in a long series of disturbing incidents that reinforce our belief that these costume characters must be licensed and regulated,” president Tim Tompkins said in a statement.

Gia Storms with the Times Square Alliance told CBS 2’s Alice Gainer incidents like Friday’s have been going on for about a year and a half. She said on any given day there can be up to 60 unregulated characters out here.

“The first time we heard about this was a co-worker who came into the office and said ‘on my way to work today Elmo just pinched me on the bottom,'” Storms said.

“Some of them can be up in your face,” Storms added. “There a little bit of pushing and shoving to try and get tips.”

Tompkins suggests characters wear badges with license numbers so they could be easily identified, Diamond reported.
