Montreal police investigating alleged voyeurism on metro as video surfaces online
Montreal police (SPVM) are investigating an alleged case of voyeurism on the metro involving an 18-year-old woman, with video footage of the incident now circulating on social media
SPVM spokesperson Caroline Chèvrefils said officers were called to the Green Line around 6:45 p.m. on Oct. 21, after the woman reported that a man had photographed her without her consent inside a metro car
“The 18-year-old woman was allegedly photographed by a man who was in the same metro car as the victim,” Chèvrefils said.
Police are working to identify and locate the suspect, described as a man in his 30s.
In the video, the man is seen seated on a bench as passengers confront him, with one person attempting to grab a cellphone from his hands.
A passenger can be heard shouting, “Delete it! Delete it!” followed by, “You are a pervert.”
Passengers are also seen demanding that the man show identification before he exits the metro car.
Police said the man could face charges. Investigators will meet with witnesses and analyze the evidence as part of their ongoing investigation.
Chèvrefils said police are aware of the video and urged citizens not to take matters into their own hands.
