Police in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture, have arrested a 26-year-old man on suspicion of lewd conduct after he dressed in drag and wore a wig to secretly film women in a public toilet.

According to police, the incident occurred at around 5:50 p.m. on Tuesday at a shopping complex. Police said Yasufumi Makino, a part-time high school teacher, has admitted to the charge.

Makino was caught after a woman employee at the mall came out of the toilet and told a male colleague that someone might have been filming her. Her colleague waited outside the toilet and grabbed Makino when he came out.
